I was simply wondering if you were referring to the long modes as defined by AMD
There are several "Long Modes" -- some are not yet implemented.
or if that was yet another unknown concept - maybe you should use the acronymes as the manufacturers do instead of inventing your own :-) keeps you from having to type long emails like this :-)
Dude, I'm _not_ the only person who refers to it as PAE52 or PAE 52-bit.
AMD and Intel _both_ refer to both PAE 52-bit and PAE 32-bit as just "PAE" for short, because the bit that enables it is the same.
Some just like to differentiate. I do. I'm not the only one either.
