PAE allows a 32 bits host to see more than 4GB of ram. but each process is still limited to ~3gb. To dive a bit more into technical details, PAE is like EMS in DOS time. In EMS, you saw the whole ram, but couldn't allocate more than 64KB per process. With PAE, the same, with a limit of 4GB-OS stuff per process, so it gives something like 3GB. Hope I'm clear. -- Laurent Wandrebeck GPG fingerprint/Empreinte GPG: F5CA 37A4 6D03 A90C 7A1D 2A62 54E6 EF2C D17C F64C
