Regarding othey your post
I have been readed year and year for everything about hardware and system

''each process can address max. 4 GB'' is not true at all,that point ur 32bit OS can have more that 4Gb with is simple not true(u can have instaled on ur mashine more than4 but it wont be used)
About ur link
U linked me wiki to read and u dind read that wiki at all,whats inside?
Ur link is abou ONE process Physical Address Extension (PAE)
For comparison, 32-bit x86 processors are limited to 64 GB of RAM in Physical Address Extension (PAE) mode,[16] or 4 GB of RAM without PAE mode.[1](p4)

You are what!? - PC SERVICER!? - I am a Unix-Administrator with 20 years of exp. and also have a Master in IT...
Blieve me, what you are writing is not true:
e.g. Windows 2000 Datacenter (32bit) could address 32GB -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_Address_Extension#Microsoft_Windows
And Linux for example: The Linux kernel includes full PAE mode support starting with version 2.3.23, enabling access of up to 64 GB of memory on 32-bit machines.
and so on...
