You need to place the /PAE at the end of both lines in your boot.ini file
like this:
No you do NOT. Where do you get your information? The [operating systems]
is a header & nothing else goes on that line.
You need to master the basics
<http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;289022> then the
advanced <http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;833721>.
No where in these supporting articles does MSFT claim that you need the
/PAE on any other lines. The only time he would is if he were dual booting
& then it would be on a line below [operating systems] like the one that
begins with multi(0)
Nvidia graphics cards do NOT support the /PAE
<http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;283296> &
therefore will not support 4g. Some machines may need the switch /3G as
well if I'm reading the Knowledge Base correctly. If he does use the /3G he
needs to include a blank space before the /
The modified boot.ini reads;
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems] /PAE
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP
Professional" /fastdetect /PAE
A space must be placed before the /PAE
I've already stated the last line twice. Thank You.
