Can Server 2003 support 8Gb of RAM memory (just the standard version, NOT Datacenter)?  I have a quad Xeon with 8Gb RAM showing at startup, but the OS only reports 4Gb.  TIA.

Server 2003 and 8Gb RAM

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
