Windows 7 Ultimate x64 ram 4GB 2GB only usable

[abdoalrahman]

Hello
I am having a big problem with Windows 7 Ultimate x64

It uses only 2 GB of 4GB

These advantages of my computer

intle core i7 2.9 cach 8MB
ram 4 GB DDR 3 pass 1366
motherboard intel DH55TC
ati 5750HD 1 GB DDR5
HDD 500 GB

I tried several solutions to this problem did not show me any result, including

Run
msconfig
boot
advanced
max memory

This is another way Jrepetta did not change anything
memory ramp
Did not show any results because I did not find her in boot


Information
He says he use it in hardwere reserved
But I did not understand what is intended

Do you have two memory modules at 2 Gigs each? If so, try moving them around in the Dimm slots separately to make sure one module isn't bad, or one of the Dimm slots needs to be blown out with some compressed air. It could also just be a bad seat, so wiggle them a bit to see if that helps. You can even clean up the gold plated portion with a pencil eraser [old trick]. If none of that works, you may want to run MemTest86 to diagnose them.

Where are you seeing that only 2 Gigs is being used? Your system information?

i will try this way now

 

[abdoalrahman]

iam finish try this way
but did not change anything
ram is work
i think this proplem in windows

Did you installed the RAM sticks in different DIMM slots, and not right next to each other?
Basicly 1 apart?

i did not understand you

but iam instald ram in slots 0 and 1 its a black slots

 

[HonorGamer]

Would you have a picture by any chance?

I mean most of the time you need to have the RAM installed on the DIMM slots not right next to each other, but 1 DIMM slot away.

So for example if you have 4 DIMM slots, then you install 2 RAM sticks in the DIMM slots 1 & 3.

You see what i mean now?

I would take a look at the picture of your memory stick locations requirements at
Intel® Desktop Board DH55TC — Product guides for DH55TC

It shows the slots for 4 sticks. I believe each of your 2 gig sticks should be in the 0

you can take a look at the .pdf file showing the memory at page 37 of the doc.

honorgamer put you in the ballpark on this.

Thanks rich,

I was hoping I was able to explain it well enough.

sir
i instaled ram in a slot 0
but Still problem

 

[HonorGamer]

How many RAM sticks are you using?

 

[abdoalrahman]

How many RAM sticks are you using?

2
i instald them in a slot 0

Alright your motherboard as 4 DIMM(Dual Inline Memory Module). Those are were your RAM sticks are inserted into. Since you have 4 DIMM slots, they are normally called 1,2,3,4. Insert your RAM Stick #1 into DIMM slot #1. Insert your RAM stick #2 into DIMM slot #3.

Do you see what I mean?

 

[David Ben Yosef]

Keeping the memory modules in every other Dimm slot is just for dual channel to work [on most rigs]. It will still use all 4 Gigs, so that's not a possibility as to why it's only showing 2 Gigs. You either have a bad module, or one of them isn't seating properly in the Dimm. I'm almost certain it has nothing to do with Windows.

Did you run the MemTest86? I would make sure you pass the memory test before proceeding any further.

That's only for the dual channel modules to work properly. You will still see all 4 Gigs no matter what configuration you have them in.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot. XD. Other than that. I would assume that it would be a bad module.

 

[DocBrown]

Does 4gb show up in the Bios setup?

How about in CPU-Z ?

How about in SIW ?

Is Max Memory set to zero (0) ?

 

[David Ben Yosef]

Hey Doc, the DRAM timings are a little high on that rig. Have you tried to see if it's stable with a 1T Command Rate?
