Currently customer application it`s supports only 32 bit operating system and they were looking for support increase the usable RAM is more than 2.18 GB (default). Pleases advice any methods to increase the usable RAM in 32 bit OS and is there any difference between windows 10 Pro and windows embedded version OS usable RAM supports.

    Hello

    32bit limits addressable ram to 4gb max. Its not the motherbd or the cpu but the OS that is the limiting factor

    Hi,

    You have the option to use any ram above 4gb as something else such as a ram drive though.

    Plus your key is valid for the 32bit or 64bit install if you don’t mind reinstalling everything as there is no other migration path for going from 32bit to 64bit.

    Best Regards,

    Tao
