How to get PES2008 working with 4GB RAM
As a user with 4GB RAM in Vista x64, I was simply not happy to use the msconfig fix to boot up the OS with 3GB RAM just so that PES would work correctly. Thankfully, there is now a way to get the game working properly without reducing the amount of RAM available to the OS.
Firstly, download Kitserver 7.0.1 from any of these locations:
Speedyshare link
Filefront link
Copy the kitserver folder from within the archive into your PES 2008 installation directory and then run the setup program (in Vista, right-click the icon and select Run as administrator) found in the kitserver folder. Once the correct game executable and settings file have been picked up, click Install and it will apply itself. Once this has been done, run the program lodcfg. You will see an option allowing you to force the game to run at a particular resolution. Type one in, click Save and then run the game. It will override whatever resolution was picked in the usual Settings program. Be warned that you should only pick a resolution your graphics card is able to use. There is a help button in this program which explains all of the options.
