How much Wood could a Woodchuck Chuck

If a Woodchuck could Chuck Wood ?

What's done is done . . . too late to stop things anyway, you need to give them 24 Hours Notice, and the sale is over tonight . . .

I bought DDR3-1333 Memory 4GB on an XP Based Rig, it was that or 2GB

Now the ONLY thing that bothers me, is when they say 3.5GB MAX

is that 'installed' or 'recognized'

Mine says 3.25.

It could be that it is reserving the 0.5GB for hardware devices. Have a look here (http://www.megaleecher.net/taxonomy/term/4722) for a brief explanation.

You gonna have 4GB on the mobo, 4GB is what BIOS gonna recognize, but XP will recon less than 4GB. Thats pretty much it. Some claim that there are stability issues if you put 4GBs on a 32-bit system which is crap imho. I got 4GB on XP 32 SP2 with no trouble whatsoever.
