Windows 2000

based computers may stop responding when you use an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) program with an AMD Athlon processor. This is due to the memory allocated by the video adapter driver becoming corrupted. This registry tweak will fix the problem.

Open your registry and find the key below.

Create a new DWORD value called "LargePageMinimum" and set it to equal "ffffffff".

Restart Windows for the change to take effect.



System Key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session ManagerMemory Management]
Value Name: LargePageMinimum
Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)
Value Data: ffffffff (4294967295 decimal)
