No, there is no option in BIOS to "enable" complete 4GB. It is a Lenovo Thinkpad Z61p and with PAE-enabled (standard-SUSE) 32bit kernel and 64bit kernel it doesn't recognize my memory! Running openSUSE-10.3!
I may be wrong, but I believe that 32bit cannot.
My BIOS does not have an "enable" for "complete 4GB", it has:
H/W memory hole Remapping This field enables hardware to remap the physical memory to the addresses higher than 00E0. (This item only activates in 64-bit OS) Setting options: [Disabled],[Enabled].
S/W memory hole Remapping This field enables software to remap the physical memory to the address higher than 00E0. (This item only activates in 64-bit OS) Setting options: [Disabled],[Enabled].
It doesn't matter how you call this! ;-) Yes, i know. but Lenovos BIOS doesn't have this memory hole remapping. This memory hole is because of PCI BUS mapped in the area above 3GB.
