subject: Re: multiple swap files?

From: Ellen K. 

The standard edition of Windows 2000 Server can't use more than 4 GB of RAM
and neither can the standard edition of SQL Server 2000.  Enterprise
edition for SS can use I think 16 but is four times the price of standard. 
The machine I wanted to run this ugly process on has 3 GB... it barfed with
a "not enough memory" error.
