would the game support more than 3GB of RAM unmodded?

I will tell you this if you have 4 GB or less memory don't change from windows xp 32 bit to windows 7 64 bit.

 

And, likewise, if you have 12 GB memory (or however much), don't change from windows 7 64 bit to windows xp 32 bit. I do not know where the threshold is, but at some point, using a 64 bit OS improves your system performance.

You won't feel the diffrence since my xp with norton internet security takes around 300 MB to run and windows 7 64 bit with norton internet security takes around 1 GB.

 

There's a lot going on in comparing Windows 7 64 bit to Windows XP 32 bit. Personally, I disagree that upgrading is a bad idea. It's true Norton Internet Security is a resource hog, but that has more to do with Norton than windows. I'd consider using a less resource-intensive anti-virus scanner.

 

If you're worried about security, Windows 7 has XP beat in just about every possible way. Even though I recently upgraded to 8 gigs of RAM, Windows 7 64 ran great when I had 2 gigs of RAM. If you're finding extreme slow-down happening on a particular machine, I'd investigate what's going on there a little more before blaming it on the operating system.

the would work better on the PC if they allow more than 4GB of RAM

it was the same case with FO3 and FONV.

i had constant crashes without using the enabler and 90% less with it.

 

and 64bit systems are the norm nowadays anyways.

i just bought a new laptop recently and during my research and shopping around i hardly see any laptops that comes with a 32bit WIn7.

they are nearly all 64bit.

 

i know that that won't happen for this game since it is just another console port but i was hoping that it would be possible.
