Windows 7 x64 only addressing 6.5GB of ram, 8GB DDR3 ram installed
System specs are listed in my signature, I have 8GB of DDR3 1600 RAM and windows 7 will only address 6.5 GB in system properties.
Looking at previous posts I have checked my bios settings and cannot find anything that would affect my RAM address space, I have also changed in msconfig maximum memory from 0 to 8192 and rebooted, no difference.
Dedicated Graphics cards... ideas anyone - only noticed this recently.
Only thing I can really think that has changed has been the upgrade from vmware workstation 7 to workstation 8. But I doubt that this has affected that at all... But it very well could have been the case all along.
Any other Ideas apart from MSconfig and bios settings?
