Title: Anomaly in memory config
Post by: roberto on March 28, 2016, 01:38:54 pm
In ecs2.0, I have modify manual the memory to this:
set VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=3072, the system is restart
but when I open the eComStation Kernel, Memory, this display 512mb.
I move the bar to 3072, will confirm aply , modify the confyg.sys , and the program adds these lines to me CONFIG.SYS  :

DLLBASING=OFF

EARLYMEMINIT=TRUE

VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=3072
No is the same set virtualaddresslimit, and virtualaddresslimit ?

Hi roberto

The statements in the REM [ Kernel Directives ] section of the config.sys file do not use the SET keyword like the REM [ Environment Variables ] section does.

So when you use SET VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT=3072 it is ignored and VIRTUALADDRESSLIMIT is set to the default 512.
