S3F can switch the 4GBP on and off (if you really need that).
Yes it can, and very easily.

Because of my modding predilections I've recently reinstalled SH3 several times and often forget the procedure, so I end up reading the instructions again.

To install the h.sie patch the SH3.exe must be moved from the SH3 folder to the h.sie folder. Then it works perfectly every time (the 4 Gig Patch must be deactivated). Then you can put the h.sie patch back in the SH3 folder and then activate the 4 Gig patch. I've gone through this several times in the last month, and haven't had a problem. Well, I've had problems, but only when I didn't follow the directions properly.
