64-bit system incorrectly recognized as 32-bit, limits RAM usage in Illustrator 17.1

Hi Everyone,
This is my first post, I usually dig my answers up on the forums without needing to post anything.  My problem is simple:
My system is 64-bit, but Illustrator CC (17.1) sees the system at 32-bit and limits me to 4gb RAM.  This issue is similar to one reported here http://forums.adobe.com/message/5420321 but I am using the 64-bit application, so the quick fix there didn't work for me.
Here is my system info:
Dell Precision T7600
Intel Xeon CPU - E5-2620 @ 2.00 GHz (2 Processors, 6 Cores each)
16 GB RAM
64-bit Windows 7 Professional SP1
Here is what Adobe Illustrator CC 17.1 reports as my system info:
OS: Windows
Version: 6.1
System Architecture: x86
Built-In Memory: 16341 MB
Application Folder:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CC (64 Bit)\Support Files\
Even though the reported built in memory is 16 GB, I have hit memory errors at 4GB of usage several times.  Needless to say this is very frustrating when working on complex files.  Does anyone have similar problems or know a workaround?
Thanks,
Chris

    is System.gc() recognized in AIR 3 for iOS ?
    Or am I putting on a line a code that's just for pasterity ?
    I have made every effort to dispose(),null and removeEventListener any unused Object, hence to be able to tell the Garbbage Collector to "go ahead" is a really awesome feature.
    Can I confirm that this line of code work in iOS ?
    Thanks

    It's not useful if you are disposing of your objects properly.
    Cache will still ensue. Running a gc at that point can slow you down. iOS knows when it needs more memory and your dereferenced objects will be removed for you.
    Again, as long as you're cleaning up your objects properly, there is no need to manually call garbage collection. You may do 'the same thing again' and what otherwise would have already been in memory as cache would have to be reallocated, slowing you down.
    Flash Builder memory profiler will show you how it will act and if you're disposing your objects correctly. As long as you don't notice instances being generated and not removed when you thought they should have, you're fine.

  • Windows 7 64-bit 8GB RAM doesn't start after installing X-Fi drivers

    I have Windows 7 64 bit, 8GB RAM for a few months. After inserting an X-Fi Platinum Fatalty Champion Series (S/N MASB046A83R0772D; OP BN 06SB046A00005 Rev A) and installing Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi series driver 2.8.003 dated 26 Jun 09. The sounds plays OK, but after rebooting Windows doesn't start, with a CorruptRegistry error. I have installed Windows from scratch, but it only works until I install the X-Fi driver and reboot. Please help. I have searched the internet and found no solution to my problem besides a Wikipedia article that X-Fi has problem with 64-bit Vista with 4GB RAM or more.

    Hi, I am also running windows 7 ultimate 64 with the same sound card and am using the july 5 driver. It works but i cant use the creative control panel as i get a black screen on start-up and when i uninstall the contol panel windows functions normally. I may have to go with the onboard sound to get all 4 speakers to work. I have 6 Gb of ram on a gigabyte X58 Mobo.

  • T60 system not recognizing drivers.

    I have a T60 laptop, model 2613-HKU. Recently I just reinstalled Windows XP. After the OS installation, I installed every drivers listed on Lenovo's website:
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-62928.html
    Still, under "Device Manager", I saw a list of uninstalled devices:
    -Biometric Coprocessor
    -Ethernet Controller
    -Network Controller
    -PCI Device
    -SM BUS Controller
    -Unknown Device
    -Video Controller (VGA Compatible)
    So I think in this case my issue would be likely to caused by the system not recognizing the drivers? Any help or suggestion would be really appreciated. I have posted a similar post before since I thought I only have an issue with the wireless system, so I apologize if anyone consider this somewhat a duplicate post.

    Just checkin: Lenovo driver installs have two steps: 1. Extract 2. Install. Did you do step 2?
    When you run the downloaded file it extracts, usually to a directory under C:/DRIVERS, then you go to that directory, and run the installer (usually setup.exe, but not always - check the installation instructions).
    I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

  • High RAM usage when system is 'idle' (EtreCheck)

    Hey guys,
    First timer here. Ok here's my question :
    I recently bought a secondhand Macbook pro 15 inch. For me it's a huge upgrade coming from a 2009 13 inch Macbook pro. Because a friend of mine wants to buy my old one I was doing some diagnostics on the 13 inch, which has 4 GB of RAM, and found out it had a lot of inactive RAM usage and wired usage, almost 2 GB, due to a lot of launchdaemons etc which were hogging the RAM. I used terminal to kill these agents and deamons and now that system is running smooth again. Maybe it's wise to mention that the 13 inch runs on ML.
    3 days ago I did a clean Yosemite install on the 15 inch, swapped the HDD for a SSD. And already the activity monitor shows a whopping 4,28 GB of RAM usage while I'm typing this with just safari open. I thought I could do the same trick as I did with my 13 inch but it didn't help, had some java deamons and helpers and deleted those. In terminal I looked up everything via launchctl list and there's nothing unusual going on as far as I can see. I had VirtualBox for one day but uninstalled it using their uninstaller. I have no clue what's eating all this RAM.  Please help me out so I can be a proud owner of my second macbook for atleast 5 years to come. Thanks in advance.

    The page outs indicate the OS has not recently swapped any memory to disk.
    Apple made changes to 10.9 that are the same on 10.10. Memory will be used as much as possible. It is the fastest storage on the system, keeping it free is a waste of your time - data loads fastest from RAM.
    This is a good explanation…
    http://arstechnica.com/apple/2013/10/os-x-10-9/17/#compressed-memory
    The system also frees 'cache' memory when another process has more need to use it. Eventually it will swap to disk (which is slow) so the OS also compresses memory before swapping is needed.
    Please avoid killing launchd jobs, many will simply restart or relaunch again later. Eventually you may kill one that hangs the OS & corrupts the disk via a forced shutdown.
    I do suspect you may see issues when RAM does get low, but there is no evidence of that here. The memory pressure graph will show red when swapping - every other colour is fine. Wait until you see red & then note the top memory users.
    If you don't want java installed you need to find removal instructions & get it all off the system, simply stopping the update checks will leave Java in an old state - terrible for security.
    Also do you know what 'Live' is? It crashed recently, if it keeps doing that it may be worth a look, however it may just be one if the things that was effects by the killing spree

  • Windows 7 system only recognizing 16GB out of 32GB newly installed

    Hi all,
    I'm having some difficulties with a newly built Windows 7 system, particularly with the RAM. The problem is I have installed 32GB of memory (8 x 4GB), but Windows is only recognizing 16GB.
    My motherboard is an ASUS P9X79 WS. I have verified that this mobo supports well over 32GB of RAM, and I have updated the BIOS to the most recent update with the ASUS update utility.
    I am using Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I understand that some versions of Win7 put a cap on memory, but I don't believe that is the case here.
    My memory is G.Skill Ripjaws Z Series 240-Pin DDR3 1600. All sticks are the same and are not mixed with other brands.
    I'm using the CPU-Z utility to examine my system, and it is reporting that 32GB of memory is installed. So it appears that only Windows is having trouble seeing it.
    I am attaching the full CPU-Z report here, in case that is helpful in diagnosing my problem:
    http://swmontgomery.com/SWMONTY.txt
    Any thoughts or suggestions as to what might be causing this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
    - Sean

    Sean,
    I was rooting around this morning in your behalf and may have stumbled across something helpful for your quest. Bottom line, I think that you may have purchased the wrong G Skill sticks for your board.
    The cpu-z report lists your RAM sticks as:
    F3-12800CL9-4GBZL (CAS 9)
    With XMP RAM timings as:
    XMP #1 9.0-9-9-25-34-2T (also CAS 9)
    However, G. Skill's RAM Configurator does not show any "GBZL" RAM kits that can run 8 sticks in your motherboard at CAS9. They do show a different kit though with the GBZL designation for 8 sticks and CAS 10 settings!
    Did you possibly purchase two 16GB kits and think that you could just run them together? If so, that is a bad assumption.
    If my theoy is correct, and you do indeed have sticks that are not intended to run with: 8x sticks (32 GB), and 1600 Mhz, and CAS 9, then you have several options:
    1) Return the RAM and buy a proper set.
    2) Try changing your motherboard bios setting to run your RAM at 1333 MHz; the CAS 9 setting may work OK for that case
    3) Get someone to work you through how to do manual RAM timings for CAS 10; that would NOT be me!
    Regards,
    Jim

  • CS5 on Windows 7 64 bit and RAM

    Hi
    Running CS5 on a Windows 7 64 bit system with 12gb RAM. CS5 says " only 3255 mb available". Why is this? Shouldn't I be able to use all of my RAM with the 64 bit versions?
    need help asap please and it will be greatly appreciated
    thanks

    That's because you started the 32bit version of Photoshop. On 64bit operating systems both a 32 and a 64bit version is installed by default so if you want to use all your ram then make sure that you run the one from the Program Files and not from Program Files (x86)
