Okay! I was told more than once that the 4GB patch would not work on 32-bit systems. I'll try it.

Okay again. Your first link (and I downloaded it) says 3 GB, not 4. I'll try it anyway.

[edit] In your instructions you say "Go to Computer/extras/folderoptions". Where is that? It's not under "My Computer" and I can't find it.

Yes... actually the patch is called 4Gb patch in the forum, but I named it also 3Gb switch because you´re able to use more than 2gb for applications or games in 32 bit operating systems.

How to edit the boot.ini file have a look here:
http://vlaurie.com/computers2/Articles/bootini.htm

and how to get the 3GB switch and what it changes:

1.- How can I take out the colour of the contacts inside the navigation map?, i mean in GWX (which i've played till now) all contacts appear in Grey, so you must identify then before attacking.
2.- Is ther any way to take out the Herr kaleun sound that you hear any time you give your crew an order?
3.- Is there any way to fix in the screen the command board you have downside?, I mean i like to see all text, as for inmersion i have voices in german but text in English as i cant understand german so good.
4.- Does anyone know if FM new interior is compatible with WAC?


thanks in advance
1. For WAC 3.0 I made such a mod: https://rapidshare.com/files/3311764...t_All_Grey.rar
Maybe it still works but I think u have to rework it (should not be too difficult), because units were added to wac 4.1
2. There is surely a way... the most easy probably to replace the soundfile with a dummy file.
3. Try this: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=1384
4. Is compatible but only work with 4gb patch, because much of memory needed.

regards
Han

Thanks for the tip, and now I understand how it works, but I discovered something in one of the links that made me stop.

Make sure you back it up, and if you encounter a problem booting up Windows, you can change it back in Safe Mode. You can also make a double entry in boot.ini to where you have a choice to load Windows in Default, or the Switch(Just add the switch under the existing boot command).

I have 3 choices...
Code:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="" Microsoft" Windows XP Home /TUTag=C52W7O /Kernel=TUKernel.exe
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=""Microsoft (TuneUp Backup)" Windows XP Home /TUTag=C52W7O-BAK
Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /usepmtimer /3GB /userva=3030
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="" Microsoft" Windows XP Home /TUTag=ORI5RD /Kernel=TUKernel.exe
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS=""Microsoft (TuneUp Backup)" Windows XP Home /TUTag=ORI5RD-BAK
Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect /usepmtimer

I’m lucky, I’m on 32 bit 7ult with 4gig ram, and I've never had a memory problem with playing WAC 4.1.

No, the next WAC version will include WAC4.1 fix.
WAC 4.1 needs WAC 4.1 fix.
