In Reply to: RE: add /nopae to boot.ini. Somehow I missed this one. posted by hfavandepas on April 01, 2009 at 03:57:34
My interest in using "/nopae" was to force the kernel into 32 bit addressing (and not 36+), i.e. less address lines. There were some issues I had but will retest.
New documentation is planned and I will get to it once cPlay 2.0 is finalised. It's looking very good with the help of other inmates. Will be great if you could assist in proof reading the material.

Hi Cics,
Thankx for reply. So my offer in helping too update the manual is already done by other inmates. I would be glad to do some proof ready. Let me know.
About the ‘/nopae’ swith voor the kernel.
This information from microsoft confused me.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms791539.aspx
It says:
“On Windows XP with SP2, when you disable DEP by using /noexecute=alwaysoff, Windows disables both DEP and PAE. This is the equivalent of using /noexecute=alwaysoff /nopae. “
Since /noexecute=alwaysoff is already in the cMP2 boot.ini file, the extra addition of ‘/nopae’ shouldn’t be necessary.
But I added '/nopae' anyhow.
I was surprised by the significant change in sound.
The difference perceived by me, is definitely not a ‘placebo-effect’ that is fooling me.
The difference in sound is just too big/significant for that.
I also label the difference as being: better.
Since the Microsoft information is confusimg, I searched for other inmates who really tried it. But it looks like Theob is the only one who really tried it.
What your opinion on the change in sound?
Do you label it as being beter ?

Hi cics / hfavandepas
I have just added '/nopae' to my limited cMP2 rig and have achieved similar sonic results (more 3dimensional image and solid bass).
My old laptop rig consists of the following:
CPU Intel Celeron 650MHz (SSE instruction set)
RAM 192MB (max)
XP Pro SP1
cMP 1.2
cPlay 2.04 (due to my limited RAM)
regards
