Unm, they're all related (hardware, general, improving for performance,
etc.)! How am I supposed to know what your NSP (I am using outsourced
GigaNews) carries. So basically, you want me to do invidivual newsgroup
post separately instead? I can do that.

Hello.

A couple days ago, I upgraded my old 32-bit Windows XP Pro. SP3 (IE6)
system/computer/system to an Intel i7 with 6 GB of RAM. I know that 32-bit
operating systems/OS' cannot see all that RAM due to old software designs'
limitations. Currently, my working Windows only sees about 2.5 GB of
physical RAM (shouldn't it be 3 GB though?).

I heard that I can use the unused memory for other things like a RAM drive
for swap files, %temp%, etc. How do I do that?

And yes, I will get 64-bit W7 or another OS one day. At this time, I am
not going to do that since XP Pro. SP3 does fine for what I need.

Thank you in advance.
