Hello
I hope you can help me with an issue :
My PC is Intel Core2 Quad CPU Q9450 2.66GHz windows Vista Ultimate 32
bits 8,00GB ram. My brother wants my 2 2GB memory dim because he says 32
bits systems don't recognize RAM over 4GB.
The system says 8GB, and the motherboard Asus
P5E CHIPSET X38 supports 8GB. Is he right and I have 4 more GB Ram for
nothing, or is the ram ayhow helpfull and I showld keep it as it is ?

Thankx

Maria Dulce

Unfortunately 4 gigs is the maximum that a 32-bit OS can use. In fact,
because some of the address spaces are reserved for hardware (such as the
ram on the video card) the OS actually only has 3.X gigs available to it.
Try reducing the ram to four gigs and observe your PC's performance - you
should not see any difference. 64-bit OS's exist, but there are still
compatibility issues. They are the future though, so you're brother may
have to return the ram in a year or two <g>.

I, and probably many others, would have to say Vista x64 has come a long way
on the compatibility issue. I have yet to run into a problem with x64
compatibility since Vista was released.

He's right as long as you use a 32-bit OS, but you have a x86-64 CPU w/ the
X38 chipset! You should/could install Vista 64-bit and hence use more than 4
GB RAM.

And could then end up with more problems than the extra 4G of RAM is
worth.

ABSOLUTELY correct! The reason the whole World has not gone to 64 bit
Vista is due to several things, but software compatability is a
biggie!

Not sure why you believe this to be an x64 or Vista issue. Sounds like an
Office issue.

I agree some individuals may have incompatibility issues. There are simply
too many different standards out there. But, those same individuals might be
surprised to know the same issues occur with the x86 version at nearly the
same frequency.

I simply stated I have had no compatibility issues even though I've changed
hard drives, memory, CPU and installed various software items over the last
year and one-half. This will not be the case for everyone. But, it is not
the issue it used to be with XPx64.

Of course it is an x64 issue.. there is no driver for the function available
for x64, but it works well enough in 32bit versions..

Hardware compatibility is being taken way more seriously than it was for
XP64, at least as far as what is in the case, but there are still issues for
some peripheral devices, and software.

Well, I read up on this issue since I don't use OneNote or Outlook and find
myself in awe of MS's lack of support for one of their own key products.
Hope they actually fix it with the next update to OneNote.

You can't include an x64 driver in a 32bit product. The problem will be
resolved with the next version of Office most likely.. presumably there will
be a 64bit version..

If by "archiving mail from Outlook into OneNote.." you mean when you right
click on a message and "Send to OneNote" then that functions perfectly on
x64 Windows Vista with Office 2007 (all patched to latest service packs and
all updates).

I have looked at a x86 (32-bit) system and did not see any additional
options to archive to anything other then a PST file.

Can you elaborate on your issue?

I do archive by way of the send to OneNote feature.

This issue was raised at the very beginning and I was made aware by the
Office team that the issue would not be fixed until the next release of
Office.

I have to do some re-organization of my system to accommodate Vista 64, but
I will try it. This is the only reason left standing for me not moving to
Vista 64..

This is where my initial info originated..

http://blog.nils-kaiser.de/2008/06/20/how-to-get-back-send-to-onenote-on-vista-x64/

There was a work around but it cost $50..

http://blog.nils-kaiser.de/2008/06/20/how-to-get-back-send-to-onenote-on-vista-x64/

It is good to know that MS fixed the problem.. Now all I have to do is
replace my old scanner, and I will be x64 ready..

Mike,

You are confusing a couple of different issues here.
Specifically the feature on the Outlook 2007 context menu for a mail message
"Send To OneNote" - this works fine and without problem. (This function
copies a mail message from Outlook to a page in OneNote.
What a number of the links you provided and then have more links inside are
actually focusing on is the Send To One\note 2007 PRINTER DRIVER - that
allows you to print from any application but instead of the output going to
a physical device etc it arrives on a page in OneNote - Now there is no x64
OneNote Printer driver, but this does not impact your issue which has always
worked (Send To OneNote from Outlook.)

[OneNote Print driver support for x64 Windows may arrive with Office "14"]
