    I have 8 GB RAM installed, yet I only see 4 GB. Is there a limit in the Preview Edition?

    The Developer Preview is available in 32 and 64 bit versions. Are you using the 64 or 32 bit version? 64 supports up to 192 GBs of RAM.

    Hey ButchWarner,

    Where are you looking to check the amount of RAM you have?

    You could also enable PAE on 32-bit flavor OS. This won't give direct addressing to higher addresses but will allow your OS to provide applications with upper RAM. But heck, I don't know how you can do that with the new boot manager.
