XP mode memory question
If I have 2 gigs of memory on my system and set XP mode memory allocation to 1 gig, how much memory will I have running in my Windows 7 environment when I'm not running XP mode. For example, 99% of the time, I won't be running XP mode and won't be wasting 1 gig of memory if the memory allocation is only applied to XP mode when opening the virtual machine. However, if XP mode sucks up 1 gig of memory even when it's not running, 1 gig may not be a good idea. Any thoughts?
