Regarding the Vista/Win7 patch (I'm using Win XP Pro), I noticed in the pdf manual the following:
Quote:
1. Patch Sh3.exe Datei with WinVista/Win7 patch
(it would be best to use the noDVD version, to prevent problems with the original Sh3.exe file.)
2. Apply the 3GB patch to WinXp to let programmes use more than 2GB:
-Go to Computer/extras/folderoptions
-Change to "view"
-Remove check at "hide expansions from known filetypes"
-Remove check at "hide protected systemfiles"
-At "hidden files and folders" -> show all files and folders
-Open C: ->boot.ini with a simple texeditor
-Extend the command line with the following " /3GB
/USERVA=2990 " without questionmarks
I assume I apply the patch to SH3.exe and edit the boot.ini to look like the following:
Quote:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOW S
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Micro soft Windows XP Professional" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptIn /3GB /USERVA=2990
Can someone confirem this please?
