MODE32: How to Access More Than 8 Megabytes (2/94)

I have a Macintosh which has 24-bit ROMs and I wanted to access more than 8
megabytes of memory with System 7, so I installed MODE32. When I open About
This Macintosh in the Apple Menu, my system size is larger than 8 megabytes,
yet I cannot access more than 8 megabytes of memory.

How can I access more than 8 megabytes?

Your Macintosh is still set to 24-bit memory addressing and cannot access more
than 8 megabytes. You must set your Macintosh to 32-bit addressing. To do
so, follow these steps:

1) Select Control Panels from the Apple Menu, then select the Memory Control
Panel.

2) Click on 32-bit addressing in the Memory Control Panel.

3) Restart your Macintosh.

Your Macintosh will now be able to access more than 8 megabytes of memory.
