What is "Total Extended Server Memory" ? Am I getting the full 4GB? I
ask because NRM seems to only show 3 GB in use.
Thanks,
Scott
So in a 4GB machine, you will have:
3GB RAM
1GB PCI address space
1GB Extended Memory (remember the old 286 and 386 machines?)

it depends on the PCI devices in the machine as to how much address
space is reserved - if you boot NetWare and type MEMORY, what does it
show?

why buy more RAM? you still have 4GB - just one GB is up in extended
memory :)
I have no pci cards in the server. odd.

it is slower, but I don't know how much slower - and it is still faster
than disk access, yes?
