Default Re: I have protools 8 working in windows 7

I Got a question for you .. I watced a video of someone doing an install of Windows 7. After it was installed ( on an intel Core i7 machine with 12 gigabytes of DDR3 Ramm) the guy went into computer properties and win 7 sees all 12 gigabytes of the DDR3 Ramm. I am wondering, if win 7 sees it, will it use it. And if Windows does indeed see it and use it, will Pro Tools see it and is Pro Tools 8.0 cs2 capable of seeing and utilizing all that DDR3 Ramm or not.
Reason I ask is I have just finished a new Core i7 build with 6 gigs of DDR3. Thinkling of going the way of Windows 7 but if Pro Tools can't see/use the extra power, (8 logical processors @ 2.66 gigabertz each and 6 gigabytes of DDR3) then there is really no reason to do it unitl Digidesign comes up with a program that will use all that power.
Anyone been giving any thoughts about this?
