Hi Anton,
I was just wondering if you managed to get that patch to work with Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8? I am assuming it is a patch to allow a 32-bit system to access and use more than 2GB of RAM, right?
I am on Windows 8 now, but only ever left XP because of the RAM issue. I have 12 GB at the moment and am planning on getting more and was wondering if there is any way to get it to be used by a 32-bit WinXP system. Also, if this were to work, how does that work with 32-bit programs? Can they access more RAM, on a patched system like this?
