Large memory setting (32-bit versions of SIS only)

Note: This setting is applicable to 32-bit versions of SIS only, it is NOT applicable to 64-bit versions.

To set this switch in Windows 7, enter the following at the command prompt:

bcdedit /set increaseuserva 3072

The returned parameter:

increaseuserva 3072
