Hi
This is my first post, and i wanted to ask what would it take to actually patch windows 95 or 98 to support more than 1gb ram (2gb max because 32 bit limit). The CONFIG.SYS fix is just limiting it.
Maybe someone technical will help me out?
Cheers

Alright
Add the following line to your SYSTEM.INI file in the "[386enh]" section:
MaxPhysPage=40000 (I'm pretty sure this limits it to 4GB?)
Save the file and Then restart your 98 VM/computer

Look for
By the way, this might not work with Windows 95. I haven't tested it.
Try it on Windows 98.
If it still doesn't work then try adding more zeroes to
Hope it works
and edit it. Go to the line containingC:\[Windows directory]\SYSTEM.INI
Add[386Enh]
into that section. Save theMaxPhysPage=40000
file containing the modifications. Then reboot your system.SYSTEM.INI
