32 bit Windows is limited to about 3.1 G of RAM if I am not mistaken. But I
agree with you that there should be no reduction in -set mem- capability. 64
bit Windows allows me to set 3G without any fuss, so if you buy a new
computer anyway, definitely go for it. The upgrade for Stata is pretty
cheap...

Hi,
Martin thanks..
I use win/xp pro (34 bit). Earlier with 2gb I could allocate 900m but now I
have 4gb but I cannot allocate more than 710M. Also this is a brand new
system, and apart from ms office and a few programs I have nothing on the
system (so I have fewer processes running than before).
I understand if I switch to a 64bit OS I can use more of the memory. But
even with the 34 bit OS shouldn't I be able to access at least as much as I
could before?

My ability to -set mem- remained almost constant after my upgrade and under
Vista Business. To -set mem- higher, you should probably invest in more RAM,
not in more processor capacity...

Subject: st: StataMP 10.1 mem issue
I recently upgraded from stata/SE 10.1 to stata/MP 10.1 both on win xp pro.
After the upgrade I have an issue with allocating more than 700M memory. I
could easily allocate upto 900m with the Stata/SE 10.1. I have applied the
patch on the stata website but that didn't help. Any suggestions?
Thanks for you time
