How much RAM can best use Win98? [pc 133 ram] [iwill kk266]
Q: Hey everybody,
Quick question. I have 256 mbs of PC-133 RAM in my system now. With RAM prices so low, I want to get some more RAM for my 3d projects.
I heard of some problems with Win 95 slow your system because it could not handle too much in the RAM.
With hand, not Win 98 have restrictions on the amount of RAM it can handle? Can
My MB 1 gig ram (Iwill kk266)
What, the sweet spot is using Win 98?
Thanks your time.

Re:<< Just my opinion. >>
Thats fair enough. guy, its got nothing to do with Lord's hardware…
Re:Yes, the Athlon 800, KT7-RAID and 768MB of memory sucked, that's why I didn't like Win2k.
guy: was your question "How quickly can I start an argument about OSes?" 
Re:Outstanding, you all know your stuff.
Thanks so much for giving me the answer to my question!

Re:I'm currently using 512mb with WindowsME and it works just great. I've also seen people use 768mb with Win9x/ME as well.
Re:guy,
Win2k does NOT suck ass. Your hardware and whoever put together the computer sucks ass!
Re:I did say the "better" OSes in the Windows line. I think Win2k sucks ass, and WinXP is worse. Just my opinion.
Re:<< Whatever better ability to use RAM there is with a "bettter" OS is offset by the fact that the "better" OSes in the Windows line are utter crap. Win98SE uses 512MB of memory just fine. >>
Excuse me, but I think Win2k is better than Win98. If you are comparing 'the better' os' with other types of OS, like Linux, then I might agree, but you dont specify

Re:I wouldnt use more than 256
tbh if you need more RAM then you can also benefit from a better OS…
Re:Windows 98 cant OPTIMALLY use any RAM
if you catch my drift;)No seriously though, 512 mb would work fine.
Re:Up to 512 MB you are okay, but if you go over that, then you need to perform a work around as shown here at microsoft's website (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q253/9/12.ASP?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0&qry=maximum%20memory&rnk=1&src=DHCS_MSPSS_gn_SRCH&SPR=W98SE).
<edit> Oops, Bacillus beat me to it.
