The reduction in memory availability is disproportional.
For Microsoft Windows users: Microsoft implemented a design change in the Win-
dows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows Vista. This change is specific
to the behavior of Physical Address Extension (PAE) mode which improves driver
compatibility. For more information, please read the following article at Microsoft’s
