My 8gb nVidia can only only use 4gb of vram according to ENBoost. I really want to know if this is to do with DirectX 9's outdated API or if it is with the graphical driver. 

 

I am SERIOUSLY contemplating getting a 2nd card on my spare PCI slot just for this purpose. (can you even duel boot video cards???)

4GB is the limit for 32bit applications, you can't use any more. The new shiny edition is 64bit which solves the problem, you'd do better to wait for that.

But I've heard that people with Windows 7 have not this problem? I just want to know who's got it working before I spend any more time and money on this issue.

That is a problem with Windows 8 and above with direct x 9 programs, the brand of GPU won't change anything.  Unfortunately the only thing you can do is switch to windows 7 or wait for the remaster.

Does running the game on compatibility mode work? I tried but couldn't figure which .exe to adjust.
