I have an XP Pro PC with 3GB of physical RAM and a SCSI
controller and HDD. I need to be able to address all of
that 3GB. Every time I check the Task Manager, the OS is
only using ~1.7GB. I tried to use the /3GB switch to
modify the boot.ini per Q316739. When I rebooted the PC,
it was caught in an endless boot-loop. I have the latest
service pack and all possible updates. I saw Q328269 and
Q819636. The second KBA references SCSI controllers. I
have one controller. Am I affected? Does anyone know where
I can get the ntldr referenced in Q328269 and/or the
scsiport.sys referenced in Q819636. I need help fast. Your
assistance is greatly appreciated.
Peter
