Win 95 memory management?

Does anyone know or can anyone point me in the direction of any documentation on how Windows 95 manages memory? Someone is tell me that if a PC has 128M of RAM, windows only recognizes 64M as actual memory?

Please help.
 
Is that rumour still floating around? Sheesh. That had to do with the old TX chipsets only being able to address 64MB of RAM at one time. Not that you couldn't put more in it, not that it wouldn't recognize it, you just took a small performance hit for doing so.

Windows 9x kernel, as I recall now, can address up to 4GB of RAM, but only 2GB at once. There's some odd issue/feature/bug with Win98, or Win98SE with machines with over 512MB though.
