And run defrag on the drive. - Get the program GPARTED. Shrink the size of the OS partition to leave only about 1 gig or so free. - Craete a new partition in the free space. - Copy the OS install CD onto this new partition. - Boot the old OS, and then run the install program off the other drive. - Use Dual boot to select the OS you need. PS as to the reasons for this. There are two prime reasons that they don't want you reinstalling a different OS. 1/ Support. They don't want people calling up to ask support for a different OS to what they have tested. (this is the BS reason that they will tell you). 2/ Spy ware/Games/Viruses etc. Call them what you will, but virtually all Personal Computers these days come pre-installed with suites of virus and spy ware software. These provide additional revenue streams to the hardware Vendor. So you have a 30 days trial virus installed, and get a warning that your nice new pc will self destruct in 30 days if you don't subscribe. The vendors don't want you having a clean install, since then there is a lower chance of a sale. I went through the same issue a short while ago.

What I do is normally start at about 800, then increase in increments of about 10meg. Generally if you try high and start going lower then you don't get as high as if you start low and slowly increment. It is weird as hell though isn't it. I mean it should just accept 1g no problems. By the way I don't normally leave the cache at 950 because I have had cases where the client for some reason had to reset the server, and it would not start. In one case I then had to take the cache below 500 to get it to start, and eventually we reinstalled and went for 850. 850 does seem to be the magic number that nearly always starts, and is reliable once started. 950 is also the highest I have achieved in a live environment, but I have gotten slightly higher in testing.

I heared that there has been a significant change in the way NAV is going to send queries to avoid the famous parameter sniffing problem in SQL2005 - which can avoid the damn clustered index scans you get once in a while. You know anything about that? Great blog, Kriki!!

You're right. I was copying too much from version 2.00 and just changing the numbers. So it is true, but it is still better to divide the DB in smaller parts, separated on different disks. It is also possible to have 1 BIG RAID10 disk, but I think it is a little overkill, because Navision already "stripes" the data if it has multiple files. I remember somewhere a discussion about what is best for performance: 1 big DB on a RAID10 or multiple smaller DB-files on multiple RAID1. It was not really conclusive. No tested it. But most people seemed to think the multiple RAID1 is better for performance Oops. You’re right. I was copying too much from version 2.00 and just changing the numbers.

I actually have a database (3.70) with 22,1 GB in one file. Further more, I think the limit depends on your licence file and not on the runtime version. There are also limits of 96 GB and 128 GB known. There is an error in your list:
