I am running Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition, using IIS, and SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. It as a 6 month old Dell server running 2 quad core processors with 8GB of RAM. I have not changed any entries to the boot.ini or with SQL Server to take advantage of the memory. I am looking for the best way to utilize the hardware in the machine???? I am somewhat familiar with the /3gb option and a little with PAE and AWE through researching. What is the best configuration to utilize the hardware in this server?
