Two Questions About Diyba 128GB PAE Patch

Patch download here:

https://retrosystemsrevival.blogspot.com/2018/01/windows-xp-ram-patch.html


Instructions found in the 7z archive:

1. Place contents of the "For System32 folder
into C:\WINDOWS\system32; Replace .exe and .dll
files in System32

2. Enter "C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers", copy contents
of "For Drivers" folder (all .sys files) to the dictionary

3. Enabling PAE
Click the start menu, then run (alternatively
pressing win + r). Type "C:\boot.ini" then add
"\PAE" at the very end of the last line of text.
SAVE the file!

4. Reboot and enjoy up to 128gb of ram on your
Windows XP installation ;)


I understand the instructions, except for the word "dictionary." Is the patch author
using the word "dictionary" because of this definition for the SYS file extension?

"SYS is a file extension for system file device driver or hardware configuration file
format used by Microsoft Windows. A SYS file also houses system settings and variables
for the drivers that enable Windows to talk to your hardware and devices."

The patch download is actually two 7z archives:

1. WinXP128GB_PAE_PATCH_Dibya.7z
2. Windows_XP_128GB_double_pae_addon_final_byDibya.7z

Number 2 is found inside number 1. Do I extract everything in both archives? I'm confused.
