Dual boot RAM
I've seen a few inquiries lately for how much ram Windows 98 can handle. Got me to thinking. If 512Mb is the max 98 can use, does that limit you when using a dual boot system? I've seen some on here indicate they are running both XP Pro or 2000 along with 98. Even tho your mobo has physical capacity for 2-3Gb of ram, are you still limited to 512Mb to maintain 98's stability?

You can use more than 512MB of RAM with Win98, but you have to make a tweak to the vcache setting in system.ini first.
