more about PAE

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.

Question

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\, ...)?
