How much memory can Vista have? Thanks.
Vista 32 bit only uses less than 4 gig,,,,,, 64 bit more than you machine can hold. Good article on memory in Vista. http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=2163 For 32-bit use 3 - 4 gig. For 64-bit use 8 gig if possible. "jakein2008" wrote in message news:ED7AF097-9F37-428E-BFCD-0463C9E88FEC@microsoft.com... > How much memory can Vista have? > > Thanks.

If more than 4GB is on the computer, these editions will still only use 4GB. Vista Starter has a paper limitation of 1GB, but will use 4GB. The actual memory available to the user will be less than 4GB but the actual amount varies according to the hardware configuration of the computer. Vista Home Basic x64 can use 8GB, Vista Home Premium x64 can use 16GB, and Vista Business x64 and Ultimate x64 can use 128+ GB. Please download and read the Windows Vista Product Guide from microsoft.com for a side-by-side comparison of all Vista features by edition. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bbc16ebf-4823-4a12-afe1-5b40b2ad3725&DisplayLang=en
