           Summary: GlobalMemoryStatus doesn't properly account for systems
                    with over 2GB of ram.
           Product: Wine
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-kernel
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: jann.ove at risvik.ath.cx


GlobalMemoryStatus() should return 2GB for systems with > 2GB of ram, as
described on MSDN: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa366586.aspx

This confuses some apps quite much, and makes for loads of funky effects.
Halflife/CounterStrike is where I noticed it first. It reported -1700MB of ram,
and failed to start. Others fail silently.
