I am building a new computer with a board that has the capacity to use 8
gigs of memory. I would like to know how much memory WinXP will accept and
utilize.
Also I would like to know if there is a limitation on harddrive size in
terms of gigabytes. For instance will it handle a terabyte or should I stay
with 400 or 500 gigs.


Possible limitations are

1) OS - WinXP SP3 x32 limits address space to 4GB on purpose.
Proper usage of PAE, would have made larger address spaces possible.

True, but PAE is a kludge. Microsoft's server systems implement it but
not the client systems. Now, with 64-bit hardware and software readily
available there's no reason to mess with PAE.
