i have to get to bed its 00:35 hrs here and i have a lecture tomorrow so i need some zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz im sorry we have not solved it yet i understand it being frustrating but we will sort it :)
good morning (stretch) barefootkid said he is not a ram man sorry i thought we might have had a few members having a look by now maybe start a new thread?
yeah my pdf printer doesnt want to print it for some reason.. just look up the users guide for my mobo (p7p55d-e pro) and go to page 3-34 (i think)
back when i had all 4 sticks (had to RMA 2 of them because one was bad) when i booted to windows (barley, with the bad ram) it recognized all 8gb of ram, and didnt say anything about useable... i never checked the resmon at that time because i had to reinstall because of the bad ram stick.. but maybe i just need to wait to get the other two sticks back and then it will fix itself
I don't know enough about computers to even have a slight clue what all has been talked about in here (skipped a few pages because it's all above my head.) But thought I'd throw out a comment I wish I could quote but can't so please bare with me.. I just got a new pc and the tech mentioned that I needed to be careful because if I loaded a driver that wouldn't work with the 64bit, that it could drop the system down so it wouldn't see/use all 8gb. Something like that. So, too easy a solution but I wondered if some driver is getting loaded (irregularly? sometimes on startup and/or reboot based on what programs you have at startup or on that would reload) and the system catches that driver and knocks you down?
Is this theory of a 32 bit driver being able to do that correct the way I understood it? Apologies if this has already been discussed or isn't even relevant. ..just trying to help and learn. :)
