Can you upload the wall or provide us with a holiday link? Thx..

They're included in the Windows 7 Holiday Lights theme:

Can you share only the wall? I don't use Windows OS.

I'm uploading all the wallpapers from the theme pack now, I'll post the link in a sec.

Edit: rm200010 beat me to it but I'll post the link anyway in case people want any of the other wallpapers from it.

And how does one go about doing this "mod"? I was under the impression that the 4GB limit was fixed and not changeable.

Here's the link for more details: http://www.pallab.net/2009/12/30/enable-more-than-4gb-memory-in-windows-vista-7/

Just make sure you physically have 4gb + of ram before applying this mod

This is off topic, but i'm curious...

why should anyone install this patch and not use the x64 Win7 version? :rolleyes:

To be honest, reasons for not using x64 version are getting fewer and fewer everyday as drivers as well as software support has improved significantly.

The linked website is actually my blog. I don't expect there to be major hiccups during the procedure, but the disclaimer is to be on the safe side. Also, I think sfc might be able to undo the changes (not confident about this).

    • Onwards to Windows 12 then lol.
    • There is a long thread (128pgs and counting) that I've been following over at ElevenForums that has a method for updating Secure Boot even if there is no BIOS upgrade. I've used this method and had zero issues. NOTE:  I do not take any responsibility if this or any other Secure Boot method bricks your system -- YMMV!  Read carefully before using!
    • Yes, yes, YES, thank you AMD. Now display audio, night light, cleartype, etc, all work again.
