How To Fix The 8GB (3GB Usable RAM) Windows 10 32bit John Nguyen. How to use more than 4GB RAM or memory on 32-bit Windows, PAE patch - Duration: 8:07.
'I'm getting 1 Gig of RAM for my Win98'I was going to mention the memory limit in my other response, it's too bad you didn't tell us that you were considering jumping the memory amount so much. There are a few areas of concern with this upgrade. The 1st was mentioned by DAVEINCAPS - Win98 will most likely have problems with 1GB RAM, in fact, it sometimes has problems with 512MB. And I honestly don't know why you feel you'd need more than 512MB RAM with Win98 in the 1st place?
Anyhow, before installing your new RAM, make sure to edit vcache setting in the system.ini file, otherwise you will get the dreaded 'out of memory' error (even though you have plenty).
Another issue is the makeup of the RAM itself. There is low density & high density RAM. Most of the 'new' SDR-SDRAM is high density, especially if it's PC133 with a capacity greater than 256MB. And many old boards won't function when high density RAM is installed. It probably won't be a problem, but it is a possibility.
