Hi,

Sorry for cross-posting. I tried this in the IDE group last week with
no response.

W2K Enterprise server and W2K3 servers support booting with the /3GB
switch. This gives the OS the top 1 GB (the default is the top 2 GB)
and leaves 3 GB for the app. However, the app.exe has to have a flag
set in the exe header. This is equivalent to the VC++
/LARGEMEMORYAWARE linker switch.

Does anyone know how to do this with a BCB (v5 in this case) exe?

Thanks

- Arnie

There is no such option in BCB. If it is just a simple flag setting, then
you could try altering the .EXE's PE header manually after the .EXE has been
generated.
