I've looked at the bios, didn't see anything. Doesn't mean it's not there... Seems unlikely, but what do I know? I just want it fixed... It's not a bad mobo slot is it? Or could it be? I'll have to run memtest again
Gonna sleep now. Check back in the morning. :yawn

yeah i checked the case, the cable management is done well.. im sort of ocd when it comes to things like that.. ive reseated the ram - windows sees it, just says its not useable which leads me to believe its a software setting

Even though your video card has onboard, fast, dedicated video memory, Windows still has to address and interact with that memory using the same physical memory addressing that is uses for RAM, PCI devices and other devices. This can crowd the physical address space. 64 bit OS should cope better with this than a 32 bit OS, but it's hands may still be tied some device requirements.

I still think it's a missing Bios setting that allocates memory to certain areas.

As you can see from my avatar, I'm a little brain impaired for the month of October
Several months ago in a few different threads there was talk of Bios settings that limited memory useage or allocated memory useage to certain areas. I am surprised that some other member has not jumped in on this yet But on the other hand, probably not all Bios have this option

when i mouse over the *hardware reserved* in resource monitor a little pop up says >> *memory that is reserved for use by the BIOS and some drivers for other peripherals* (mines 1 MB in use 3100 MB) so thats a good clue leading to the bios.
