DriverStudio 3.2

panzer22... guy, I really, really, really love you! You just made my life more bright, you enlightened it more than you can imagine, and if you were a pretty girl (there is no evidence you aren't, but pretty girls usually don't tend to hang around on boards like this), I'd kiss you all over to show you how much I appreciated your post! thanks!! Now I feel much better behind my computer, I used to feel so weak without the raw power of winice that allows me to debug down to the raw metal!

I read, it is also possible to activate PAE on Win2000+SP4+AMD64.
But with XPSP2, Mirosoft has activated PAE to make windows more secure.
It could be, that some other system-tools will not work with WXP+SP2+AMD64, so you have to disable it in boot.ini

@panzer22:
Are you sure you understood what PAE is used for? PAE is an extension which was introduced to allow CPUs to access more than 4 GB of RAM, by increasing the maximum addressable memory location from 32 bits to 36 bits (so a total of 64 GB RAM is addressable).

It has nothing to do with the execution prevention introduced in WinXP SP2 and doesn't make Windows more or less secure in any way. In fact, the PAE extension has been available since WinNT 4.0 SP3 came out.

That all meens - If I'm upgrade my WinXP+SP1 (+MSBlast protection) to SP2, PAE will be turned ON, event with 768Mb RAM? And I'll have to turn it off by my hands...
Becouse all says that they hav'd this problem... Or Somebodys turn On Some Security tools (MS Firewall, Automatic Updates \I've turned them off\, ...)?
