Windows XP supports a maximum of memory and maximum of disk space?
If I recall, XP can utilize a maximum of 2Gigs of RAM. I do not think there is any limit to the disk space.
What is the maximum amount of memory any single process on Windows can address and is this different from the maximum virtual memory for the system?
Answer Processes access virtual memory space, not physical memory. Applications never access RAM directly but only through the memory management interface of the processor. Depending on which version of Windows you are using, and how the program was compiled there is a different maximum ammount of addressable memory. All 32 bit processes on 32bit Windows have a 4GB virtual address space. The upper 2GB is common to all processes and is used by the system. The lower 2GB is private to each process and is inaccessable to all others. Unless the program was compiled as large address aware, in which case it will have 3GB of private address space. For 32bit processes on 64bit Windows, each process has 2GB private address space, unless compiled large address aware in which case it has 4GB private address space. For 64bit processes on 64bit windows each process has 8TB of private address space whilst compiled as large address aware. The 2GB address space limit remains for programs not compiled as large address aware. This is completely independent of the size of RAM or the pagefile. The system maps physical memory into this virtual address space according to both need and availability. At any given time the data in virtual memory space might be stored in RAM, on disk, or both. All of this is totally transparent to all applications. Frequently accessed data will be kept in RAM with the remainder left on disk.
What is the extended memory space on a computer?
Memory above 1024K used in a DOS or Windows 9x/Me system.
Which is the maximum amount of RAM supported by windows server 2008 R2 standard edition?
32-bit versions of Windows 2000 support up to 4 GB of RAM minus space used by devices in the address space on non-PAE capable systems. On PAE-capable systems, Windows 2000 can support, depending on the version, up to 64 GB of RAM.
Maximum memory address space that the processor can access directly if it is connected to a 16-bit memory?
Max. memory address space= 216 X 2 bytes = 128 Kbytes
What is the purpose of virtual Memory in Windows 7 operating system?
It's purpose is to give the Windows operating system extra space to enable it to work properly. If a computer has insufficient RAM, Windows can use free space on the hard-drive as virtual memory.
What is the maximum memory card space one can get for a digital video camera?
The maximum amount of memory space one can get for a digital video camera will vary depending on the camera and how it is used. For example, videos of longer length will generally use more memory than smaller videos. Videos also tend to use more space than photos.
How can you tell how much virtual memory your computer has?
Virtual memory is determined by 2 factors. First, the amount of free hard drive space available on your hard drive. Secondly, it is determined by your virtual memory settings under Windows properties. Assuming you have not changed your Windows default settings, then every ounce of free harddrive space IS virtual memory.
How many gigabytes of memory does spore have?
Windows XP:FOR WINDOWS XP* 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent* 512 MB RAM* A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0* At least 4 GB of hard drive space, with at least 1 GB additional space for creations.FOR WINDOWS VISTA* 2.0 GHz P4 processor or equivalent* 768 MB RAM* A 128 MB Video Card, with support for Pixel Shader 2.0* At least 4 GB of hard drive space, with at least 1 GB additional space for creations.
What is the recommended size of cache memory in a processor?
The maximum size of a cache memory is theoretically equal to the amount of primary memory(RAM).Like Cache only memory architecture where the whole memory space is filled up with the cache only.
What is the minimum CPU speed and memory to run windows 7 64bit?
1GHz or faster 64-bit processor. 2GB RAM Memory. 16GB Space.
What is Windows virtual memory?
Virtual memory is a way of allocated extra space from your hard drive as RAM space. For instance, if you are running a program which is memory intensive such as Photoshop and you don't have enough RAM to handle all the temporary memory requirements, but you have a few extra gigs of space on your hard drive, you can set your Virtual Memory to 2 or 3 GB's to help balance the load.
