The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Windows Server 2000 Std - 4GB RAM limitations

Asked by chuckrox in Operating Systems Miscellaneous

Tags: windows, 2003, ram, server, 2000

I've recently setup a couple of server 2003 boxes with 4GB RAM that all went OK; I've now done a same hardware Server 2000 Std box with 4GB RAM and when I check system properties it only shows up with 2.8GB RAM. I know why this is (PCI Express, video card and RAID controller all chew up addressable memory); but what should I do about it if anything. This box is going to be a terminal server so I'd like to have all 4GB useable. Can I / should I use Physical Address Extension (PAE)? Do I have any other options (IE: free) short of going to Enterprise Edition?

My setup is:
Windows Server 2000 Std SP4
dual AMD Opteron 280 CPU's
Tyan S2895 mobo
4 x 1GB Corsair DDR400 ECC RAM
Adaptec 2130SLP 128MB RAID controller (4 drive RAID5)
XFX 7600GS 256MB video

Thanks
-Chuck
