There have been issues with it not installing with more than 2GB in. One suggestion is to leave only 2GB in, install, then add remaining RAM.Bjenkins_X_123 wrote:

Intel Pentium 4 3GHz
3.2GB DDR2 RAM recognised by Windows XP Home (have 5GB RAM installed)
NVidia GeForce PCI-E 9800GTX+ OC
Is there anything else you need to know?
I tried copying the entire lot to the harddisk, still came up with the same problem.
Really? even with an error of non-32 bit application?jsnipy wrote:

Do you know if your CPU supports 64bit? What is the exact model of the CPU if you're not sure and we can let you know. It sounds to me with that error that you have a 32 bit cpu.Bjenkins_X_123 wrote:

That. And my god, why are you running a 9800GTX+ with a P4?Scorpion0x17 wrote:

Who's they?SgtHeihn wrote:
I did a quick search on google and they said running it on a P4 isnt worth it.
So you're saying that would limit the capabilities of the rest of his components by having the p4?Gooners wrote:

We haven't established whether he does have a 32bit or 64bit CPU yet!Cheez wrote:

Use the 32-bit disc and use the same CD key.
Intel made P4 64bit (first ones came 2004-2005) but yours isn't?Bjenkins_X_123 wrote:

Soz, my protip wasn't concise enough. ^ That's what I meant.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

I suspect the error message is because he's trying to run the 64bit setup from WITHIN 32bit XP.
That would happen whether the CPU is 64bit or not.
Tried both of those. Booting from startup just gave me Blue screen of death.Scorpion0x17 wrote:

I do not know if it supports 64-bit. The model, according to CPU-Z is Intel Pentium 4 531. Sound about right?jaymz9350 wrote:

A lot of noise about the CPU going on, I'm guessing then that I should probably upgrade the CPU too? Or the motherboard, or both, if that is where the problem lies?Cheez wrote:

And yer, P4 anything, forgetabautit.

Ok, I'll give that a gomax wrote:
