    Device manager shows "RAM: 8GB (3.2GB RAM usable)"


    As the title says Device Manager shows "RAM: 8GB (3.2GB RAM usable)". Why is my other 4.8GB not usable? Please tell me it is not eaten by Windows or similar

    Oh ****. I just changed from 64bit because of hardware driver difficulties so I have really downgraded . Can't win. Any way to optimise my 8Gb?
