Windows 7 Starter 4gb Ram Patch

Download the 4GB Patch
Current Version: 1.0.0.1

I originally wrote this tool for a friend of mine who needed it. This very little tool patches x86 executables in order to let them have 4GB (instead of only 2) of virtual memory on x64 platforms. This tool comes very handy for applications which need a great amount of virtual memory like games, 3D renderization, multimedia etc. To gain these 2GB, you just have to use this tool to patch the executable (*.exe file) of the software you want to have these additional GBs of virtual memory. It can be used by clicking on it and choosing the file or through command line (e.g.: “4gb_patch file.exe”). It automatically creates a backup copy of the original executable.

Why things are this way on x64 is easy to explain. On x86 applications have 2GB of virtual memory out of 4GB (the other 2GB are reserved for the system). On x64 these two other GB can now be accessed by 32bit applications. In order to achieve this, a flag has to be set in the file’s internal format. This is, of course, very easy for insiders who do it every day with the CFF Explorer. This tool was written because not everybody is an insider, and most probably a lot of people don’t even know that this can be achieved. Even I wouldn’t have written this tool if someone didn’t explicitly ask me to.

Add More RAM to Increase RAM. The most direct way to increase RAM is to add more RAM to your computer or laptop. The first step that you need to do is to detect and identify what kind of RAM your computer is using. Then you can buy a new RAM - 4GB, 8 GB or 16GB to add to your computer or laptop.

Make 32-bit applications run with 4GB of RAM on 64-bit systems by turning to this lightweight, portable application that can be operated by anyone

If you are one of the numerous users who preferred to purchase an x64 computer rather than an x86 one, it means that you are already aware that the main advantage of the former type of platform is that its apps can use more RAM compared to programs running on x86 PCs that can use up to 2 GB of RAM.

4GB Patch is a tiny software solution that can help you tweak your x86 programs so that they can make use of up to 4 GB of RAM, when running on a x64 PC. This can come in handy if you want to play a game that requires high RAM resources or you need to initiate a rendering task within your 3D graphic software.

You do not even need to install 4GB Patch on your PC, as it can be run as soon as you extract the dedicated file - when you launch it, it will require you to select the executable file you want to patch, then it simply displays a message informing you that the process was successful.

In addition, the application automatically creates a backup of the patched *.EXE file, so you can restore it in case something goes wrong.

Moreover, you can patch as many executables as you choose within a single session, all you need to do is to browse to their location and select them.

All in all, 4GB Patch is a nifty utility that can be of great use when you want to run x86 apps on x64 computers and you also need them to have access to all the available RAM. While this task can also be achieved using other tools as well, it is the intuitive and user-friendly interface of 4GB Patch that makes it accessible even for beginners.
