Hi all,

I need to test out Windows 2008 VHD evaluation copy. Can I add more RAM to
my Vsta computer to host these VHDs? Currently, I have Vista 32 bit
computer with 2GB RAM. Can I make it 8GB and will Vista recognize these RAMs?

thank You.

Thank you.

If I need to allocate RAM to virtual (guest) machines, I need to make host
to recognize these RAMs first. Right?
