Is this a correct way of doing this? http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=306422
or is it in post # 153 better??
It's pretty much the same procedure...
However the linked page is talking about creating a large block of virtual memory. Usually such settings are already used because players who enable the /3GB setting also have a large amount of physical memory and thus also need a comparable amount of virtual memory, but maybe you didn't set the virtual memory settings this high. So you could check that.
The rest of the post is also mentioning a double boot option which can be useful if you want to be able to switch between the normal 2GB and the enhanced 3GB setting (which is sometimes less stable). However, you need the 3GB version to solve the MAF errors and thus the ability to switch doesn't help with the MAF error.
