This topic has been moved to AMD64 nVidia boards.

It depends highly on how much hardware (add-in cards) you have installed. If you have two VGA-cards, then it's likely that usable memory stays below 3GB. If you take some hardware out, you will see the usable memory increase a bit, but you won't reach the full 4GB. It will go as far as about 3.25 or so.

    Hi John,
    If your MBP is a 2011, yes, and here is one example: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Other%20World%20Computing/1333DDR3S4GB/
    If your MBP is from 2006, the other year Apple made a 2GHz, the answer is no, as the max RAM is 2GB.
    Given that it appears you already have 2x2GB installed, I'm "guessing" you have the 2011 model, so the answer is yes.

  • Can i use bootcamp on my MacBook Pro10.6.8 with Windows XP

    Does anyone know if i can use bootcamp in the situtation above?

    System requirements for Windows XP and Windows Vista
    To use Boot Camp with Windows XP or Vista and Mac OS X v10.5.x through 10.6.x, you will need the following:
    An Intel-based Mac that does not require Windows 7.
    A Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard or Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard installation disc. This can be either a purchased copy of a Mac OS X v10.5 or Mac OS X v10.6 disc, or a Mac OS X Install Disc 1 from a Mac that had Mac OS X v10.5 or Mac OS X v10.6 preinstalled.
    A USB keyboard and mouse, or a built-in keyboard and trackpad.
    Important: You should use the keyboard and mouse that shipped with your Mac, or a built-in trackpad.
    At least 10 GB of free space on the disk onto which you’re installing (for Windows and Windows-based applications).
    Boot Camp Assistant, which is installed in /Applications/Utilities/.
    You will also need one of the following Microsoft Windows discs:
    An authentic, 32-bit Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition or Professional with Service Pack 2 or Service Pack 3 disc.
    An authentic, 32-bit Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate disc.
    With some Mac Pro or MacBook Pro computers, an authentic, 64-bit Microsoft Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate disc.
    See Boot Camp 2.0: Which versions of Microsoft Windows are supported? for more information.
    Important: For a Windows XP installation, your Microsoft Windows XP installation disc must include Service Pack 2 (SP2) or Service Pack 3 (SP3). Boot Camp 2.1 must be installed prior to upgrading Windows XP to Service Pack 3 (SP3) or Windows Vista to Service Pack 1 (SP1). Download Boot Camp 2.1 from Apple Downloads.  When using Windows Vista, some Boot Camp drivers require Windows Vista to be updated to Service Pack 1 (SP1) or later.

How do i sort this out!? It is very frustrating as the main reason i have bought  a mac is to use logic! Any help would be great as i am a complete novice when it comes to Macs!

    You're probably on OS X Lion?
    I had the same problem as you. I used Software Update to update Logic Express to the latest version, and then it ran without any problems.

  • How to use 4GB RAM on Windows 2000

    Hi,
    We use a third party application that parses weblogs and generates statistics.
    The application gives OutOfMemory exception when the weblogs are hugs.
    I am wondering if doing "editbin.exe /LARGEADDRESSAWARE java.exe" is going to help.
    I have 4GB of physical RAM and I have /3GB in boot.ini in Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
    Thanks,
    Anurag.

    How to use 4GB RAM on Windows 2000You are never going to use 4g on a windows box. The maximum addressable space is 4g. Normally the OS reserves 2g. Which means the maximum addressable space for an application is 2g.
    It is supposed to be possible to increase the addressable space to 3 gig. And also increase the JVM space. However, there are risks. The following thread suggests a way to do this

  • Can i use 533 ram ??

    can i use 533 ram with my board :  msi 865pe pls ??????????

    Most suitable PSUs for any system will be like Antec TruePower 480w, Enermax Noisetakers 470w, Enermax 465watts, PowerPC 550watts, OCZ 550watts etc.
    Like I said, 533MHz RAMs are meant for o/c'ing so there'll be no official statement that it'll be 100% supported as the highest stable for a FSB 800MHz CPU is DDR 400MHz RAMs which are reconisged by Intel and anything higher than that is considered for o/c'ing purposes.
    If you die die wants to buy the DDR 533s, I recommend Kingston or Geil Golden Dragon series. You may want to check out what other users are using for their RAMs vs Mobos.
