[REQUEST] Intel PSE-36 driver for NT 4.0
This used to be a free driver that Intel distributed on their website, after registration (hence you can't get it from archive.org). The PSE-36 driver was an early method for accessing > 4GB of RAM with Windows NT 4.0 Enterprise Edition. In subsequent versions of Windows, PAE was utilized.
Does anyone have a copy of the old PSE-36 driver?

Sorry if that's not much help.
One crufty looking website says it's in stock and can be ordered for $49:

Can't say I'm 100% sure that's the right CD, but seems to be. I've found 3 hits for intel vtune on old-dos.ru, but the file listings don't turn up anything for "PSE36", but maybe it really is hidden in there? I wish I could see the 1999 version:

I see references to "pse36file.exe" on Supermicro's old FTP site, and an old HP laserjet 4Si driver:

Doesn't look like a driver. Just detecting its presence, perhaps?
Is Intel's version really any better than Gavotte? "The driver runs only under NTS/E and lets a maximum of one application use memory above the 4GB boundary as a type of RAM disk."
I've spent far too much time. on finding something I don't need to want. I hope someone turns it up.
