Before anyone asks why I'm doing this; I already have 2GB of RAM, and I realize another GB won't be a drastic change, but I'm running 667 RAM, and I'm looking at jumping speed to 800 anyway, so why not go up in volume while RAM is cheap as dirt? |
Yes, you can do this. I have 4GB in my XP setup, and after allocating the 512MB of Graphics RAM, 3584MB is recognized.
