I have many Bl c-class servers, all of them have the AMD Optheron CPU, as I understand this CPU is 32 bit. now some of these servers have up to 12 GB memory. In windows server 2003 I only see 4 GB.
1- is it possible to install windows server 2003 64 bit on a 32 bit architecture?
2-should I use the /PAE switch to be able to address the 12 GB memory. because I read that this is an intel command. Is it applicable for AMD also?
Solved! Go to Solution.

c-Class blades with AMD processors use AMD Opteron processor Model 22xx.
AMD Opteron 2200 series processors are 64-bit, dual-core, and support AMD Virtualization
Windows 2003 Standard only supports 4 GB in 32 Bits (16 GB in 64-bit version).

2-Yes.
PAE works for processors mainly from intel,.. but also AMD processors(not all)

Re: BL c-class memory
Are you sure they are 64 bit?
If not can I use the /PAE with AMD processor?
So you are saying that installing a 64 bit OS will solve my problem

It can... but 32 bit will also work... with PAE.
