CoolSNAP 
Camera will Not 
Image When 
Attached to 
Certain Dual-
processor or 
Hyperthreading-
capable PCs 
Some high-end Windows 2000/XP-enabled computers with Intel Pentium or 
Xeon
 processors include a memory enhancement called  Physical Address 
Extension (PAE). PAE allows these compters to address memory above 4GB; 
however, when PAE is enabled the IEEE-1394 CoolSNAP camera will not 
transmit any pixel data. 
To determine whether your computer is running with PAE enabled, go to the 
Control Panel and open the "System" icon.  Under the "General" tab, you will 
find a reference to Physical Address Extension in the "Computer" section. 
To disable PAE, you must edit your C:\boot.ini file and remove the /PAE flag.
