Al开发者_运维技巧l,

How much memory a 32bit server running Windows 2003 Server edition can address?

Depends on what edition.

Have a look at this. What Windows will actually SEE in 32-bit editions is a bit different.

Also, have a read through Physical Address Extensions (PAE) which, as others have mentioned, allows 32-bit Windows to address more than 4 GB of memory.

4 GiB for Standard edition (with PAE). Otherwise:

64 GiB is the absolute maximum for the 32bit versions. I think that limitation is the limitation in PAE.

This is how you calculate it

2^32 = 4294967296 bytes .
