This article is written for 3. Unless explicitly mentioned, Windows 7 and Vista refers to the 3. Operating Systems. Couple of months back, I had blogged about a peculiar Windows 7 issue which could cause a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) if the system had 4. GB (or more) RAM. I managed to find a fix for that issue. But, I had another minor niggle to figure out. Although I paid for 4. GB of RAM, Windows refused to use more than 3. GB. If you have 4. GB or more RAM then you are probably familiar with the following screen. Computer Properties displayed installed memory as 4. GB but at the same time stated that only 3 GB is usable. So, where did the remaining memory go? As it turns out, chunks of your RAM are reserved for various purposes and are not available to the operating system.
Internet Explorer 10 won't run on Windows Vista -- the final version, as well as the recently released developer preview. It's a clear attempt to kill off Windows. Hide Vista's Public Folder with HideDesktopIcons Registry Tweak to Hide Vista's Public Folder. If you want to hide Vista's Public folder then there is a registry. For example, PCI Express support will reserve 2. MB depending upon the graphics adapter. Due to this Windows always displays less than 4 GB RAM as the amount of usable memory. Depending upon your hardware, anywhere between 2. GB and 3. 5 GB of RAM will be available to the OS. But, what if you have more than 4 GB RAM? Even on a system with 3. GB RAM, 3. 2 bit editions of Windows will display less than 4 GB of memory. This is a known limitation of the Windows Vista and 7 x. Microsoft claims that it is not their fault and is instead a limitation of the 3. At first glance this seems correct. GB of RAM (2. 32 = 4. G). However, this is not actually true. The main reason being a feature called Physical Address Extension (PAE). PAE makes it possible to address more than 4 GB of memory using 3. Instead, the registers store linear addresses, which are mapped to physical addresses using the page table. This feature has been available since the days of Intel Pentium Pro. In x. 86 processors additional address lines are provided so that up to 6. GB can be addressed when using the PAE mode. If you want to learn more about Windows memory addressing, go through Geoff Chappell’s notes. Windows Vista and 7 have two kernels – one which doesn’t use PAE and one which does. They are NTOSKRNL. EXE and NTKRNLPA. EXE respectively. Both of them reside within the Windows/System. Can you guess which one you are using? If you have a modern machine, then chances are that Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is enabled in your system and in that case you are already using the kernel with PAE enabled. How to Enable More Than 4 GB Memory. Before getting started, keep in mind that this patch involves modifying the kernel. Do no proceed unless you are confident. Most security products will identify these patches as malicious since they modify the Windows kernel. Download the appropriate patch for your system (links at the end of this post). I haven’t tried the Windows Vista patch, but I can confirm that the Windows 7 patch works. The Windows 7 patch is in Russian language. To begin patching click on the big button (refer to screenshot). After this a command prompt window should appear. Press Y. On restarting the system, you should see two entries in the Windows Boot Menu – one being the older configuration and the other being the one with support for more than 4 GB RAM. If you don’t want to be prompted every time, press Win + R, type msconfig and hit Enter. Under the Boot tab, reduce the timeout value (to something like 3 sec). If you wish, you can simply get rid of the older configuration by deleting it. But I wouldn’t recommend this. If you get a water mark (Test Mode) on your desktop after restarting, type mcbuilder. Start Menu and press Enter. Windows Vista Patch. Windows 7 Patch: Step 1 (Click on the button)Windows 7 Patch: Step 2 (Press Y)This patch will allow the OS to use more than 4 GB of memory. However, it does have a limitation – more than 3 GB of memory cannot be allocated to a single application. This patch is mainly targeted at systems with more than 4 GB of RAM. However, in some cases installing this patch on 4 GB systems will also lead to an increase in available memory (which may not necessarily result in performance improvement). This may appear to be a bit strange since Windows 7 and Vista are technically capable of addressing up to 4 GB of memory. Obviously, there is a logical explanation for this behavior. But, I won’t discuss it here. Refer to Geoff Chappell’s notes on Physical Memory Map if you wish to explore the issue in detail. Warning: The patches described in this article are kernel patches. They may result in unexpected hardware issues and expose your system to malicious exploits. Download Links: 4. GB Memory Patch for Vista 3. SP1 and SP2)4. GB Memory Patch for Windows 7 3. Multi.

There’s no point in buying a low priced plan and getting hit with extras which cost you more than you were expecting, further down the line. Here are the steps we’d recommend. Use your phone company’s Self Service App : Downloading and installing a phone company app could not be simpler. It’s the first and most important thing we would recommend you do. Apps are all free from the Google Play or i. Tunes store and they all do very much the same thing. You can track your usage and buy extra services cheap ( like more data if you need it ) rather than paying exorbitant out of bundle rates. Track your usage – especially data : Both Android and i. OS phones now allow you to measure your data usage through their settings. This is a good guide to your data usage, too. Bear in mind though. The number displayed in your data settings usage section is what the phone thinks it’s used. In some cases, that will differ from what the phone company thinks you’ve used. Treat these are useful indicators – but only as indicative. Avoid overage especially data : Any overage will cost you. Data tends to cost the lot. There’s no point worrying about it, just make sure you keep an eye on your data allocation. Always remember, the video you watch is 9. Use your phone smartly : There are a number of inexpensive ways you can work around being charged by your phone company for their services and keep your bill down.

Keep it cheap when you can – with Wi. Fi for data where possible : Make the most of free data over Wi. Fi at home. Tune in to Wi. Fi when you’re out and about. Think about whether you really need to watch that cat video using your cellular connection. Some simple . You can change whenever you want to. Be ready to move if you see a better deal, especially if it includes an introductory offer. The trend is your friend – change plans : Finally, in a related subject, we explore what data deflation is. By being on a month to month plan, you are opening yourself to plan improvements of the sort we’ve outlined above, over the course of time. The value in these phone plans is genuinely amazing. It’s a general rule, when it comes to products, that the lazier you are, the more you’ll pay: Think mortgage, car insurance and phone plan. A willingness to undertake a small amount of research in to the ways phone plans have changed over the last 1. Sustaining the low cost of these plans will involve closer monitoring than the alternative : Buying a plan with far more of everything than you need and ignoring it. But with apps now freely available from big and small phone companies, that’s hardly arduous. With a GB of data, a value add of Family Zone, unlimited SMS and some voice minutes, we think OVO Mobile take the deal for the cheapest phone plan on the market. |
