Problem with application memory in windows 7 32 bit?

I used firefox with many opened tabs. Firefox used 1.7 GB (and more) of RAM and worked well. But unfortunately after one windows update, firefox started to crash using memory above 800 - 900 MB of RAM. Later it turned out that this is much
more serious problem because some serious programs (cad system ANSYS) intended to use 2 GB RAM and above, now crash at 1.2 GB RAM or about. Is there way to return to previous behavior of windows 7 32 bit where applications could use 2 GB of ram with no problems?
Thanks. Best regards.

 

Win 7 Home 32-bit was Upgraded to Win 10 as a result amost 60% RAM remains underutilized - How to resolve - How to change 32-bit Win 10 to 64-bit?

I have a 64-bit desktop PC with 8GB RAM installed on it.

I had installed 32-bit Windows 7 Home (SP1) on it (when I purchased the O/S DVD, years ago, I only had a 32-bit machine).

Yesterday, I upgraded it to Windows 10.

"This PC >> Property" shows

-- Installed Memory (RAM): 8 GB (usable 3.4 GB) (less than half)

-- System type: 32-bit Operating System, x64-based processor

Thus, my installed memory remains underutilized. This situation can be rectified by changing the Operating System from 32-bit to 64-bit, I guess.

But, the question that I face here is "How do I do that"?

Help, with a step-by-step simple approach, will be much appreciated.

Thank you, all!

 

Problem with application memory in windows 7 32 bit?

How much memory have you got on board ?

2 Gig or 4 Gig ?

If you only have one 2 Gig Module installed i would suggest you add another.

Trouble being if its still the older DDR2 ( PC6400 ) they are getting harder to find.

Since you are running a 32 bit system it will only see approx 3 Gig of 4 Gig.

The reason behind the so-called ‘3GB barrier’ lies in the architecture of 32-bit operating systems. Each individual byte of RAM has its own physical address that the system uses to access particular units of memory. 32-bit systems
have a limit on the amount of addresses available for RAM and various other components. Depending on your setup, this can limit the amount of RAM your system can support to somewhere around 3GB — although it could be slightly higher or slightly lower.

There are many work around`s
BUT they require a in depth knowledge of msconfig, Services and Processes.
when the computer is booted.

One could TURN OFF / STOP FROM RUNNING TEMPORARILY certain START UP PROGRAMS in MSCONFIG depending on whats installed.

Same goes for certain SERVICES and PROCESSES that may not be required, ( NOTE : of which many do require to start at boot ).

This may release some memory.

Still , i would not recommend this without one having prior knowledge of whats SAFE TO STOP FROM RUNNING TEMPORARILY and WHAT IS NOT.
