Thanks for your comments, slowsmile.

1) I was talking about the RAM made available to win7, not the amount installed on the system. If I tell Qemu to give win7 8GB, it can't use that - it's a 32 bit x86 OS. Sorry if that was unclear. The issue is really that the emulated win7 instance behaves different to one that runs on its own hardware, both with 4GB Ram. I was hoping someone would know why, but it's early days.

3) Here I was comparing PV 3.38 to PV 2.94 (and books sideloaded to kindle fire 7in and 8.9in, touch, even kindle keyboard 2 (the white one) and 3).

PV 3.38 fails, all the others work as expected.
