- Jul 22, 2011 I just checked and the Fallout: New Vegas executable is not set to be 'Large Address Aware.' For the following: you should not go ahead and make Fallout: New Vegas Large Address Aware yourself as it is possible, but not likely, that that would interfere with a future patch. An overview of Large Address Aware and a tool to manage that settings with the programs you have on your system is: http.
- Oct 30, 2017 So I've been modding my Bethesda games for almost a year now, and I recently found out about this 4 GB patch and how it's a 'must have for Fallout NV', however I'm not exactly sure what it does. So what specifically does it do? Set the Large Address Aware flag to allow the game to use the full 4GB or RAM that 32 bit applications are limited to.
Hey there, I'm not sure if this is the proper place but hopefully I can get some help.
I'm trying to use the 3GB Enabler and it tells me I need to edit my Boot.ini file. Looking around (I have Windows 7) and I find that I don't have one, but its called bootmgr instead. Can anyone tell me how to do this using Windows 7?

I've done the following *Strikes* so far.
1) Make Fallout 3 'large address aware using this utility.
a) make a back up copy of 'Fallout 3.exe'.
put Fallout3.exe in the utility folder
c) double click 'START.BAT'
d) follow the instruction in the command window
e) once made 'large Address aware', return the fallout3.exe to your game folder.
2) Enable the /3GB switch on your computer. The switch is entered in the system’s boot.ini file and takes effect after a computer restart. Here's how to do it:
....WARNING: From MADBORIS himself;
'I only suggest this for people that are intermediate to advanced users, so if you don't feel comfortable editing a boot.ini, you may not want to proceed. Editing a boot.ini improperly may render your PC unbootable, which is why I suggest you copy/paste the entry in the boot.ini to make a new additional boot option, leaving the original intact.'
OK, disclaimer over, what next!?
***For Windows XP***
Right-click My Computer and select Properties. The System Properties dialog box will appear.
a) Click the Advanced tab.
In the Startup and Recovery area, click Settings. The Startup and Recovery dialog box will appear.

d) In the [Operating Systems] section, add the following switches to the end of the startup line that includes the /fastdetect switch: ' /3GB /Userva=2900' (do not include the quotes)
e) Save the changes and close Notepad.
f) Click 'OK' two times to close the open dialog boxes, and then restart the computer for the change to take effect.
