Hello,
I have a 64 bit AMD processor server running SQL 2000 Enterprise 32 bit
version. Would I be able to use more than 4 gigs of RAM? The server does have
16 gigs, but I am unable to go above 4 gigs...is this due to the 32 bit
version of SQL perhaps?

Thanks in advance,
Ben

Ben,

32-bit Windows cannot use above 4GB directly. You should be able to use AWE
memory to get access to the upper memory. Read this article for details:

Also, pay attention to the limitations, since this memory cannot be used for
everything.
