-3 Memory Slots?

I installed Speccy on my work desktop, and was browsing through it just for kicks and noticed something very odd. Under the RAM tab, it says I have -3 ram slots available? Everything works fine, there's no real problem, just curious as to why this says that? Any clues?

This is a HP Z400 workstation PC, and I don't really have the spec's under my info because it's not my main PC, just a work one, but I will post a pic of the mobo stats. Using Windows 7 Pro 64 bit.

What do you see on the HP Z 400 when you poke the RAM icon on the left side of Speccy?

My desktop shows

Total memory slots 4
Used memory slots 2
Free memory slots 2

Don't know why you would see a minus sign. I assume that's your complaint?

The RAM section of Speccy above is the HP Z400 workstation, and yes I am wondering why I am seeing -3 Free memory Slots.....that's all.

I've just updated the BIOS to no avail! Still says -3 slots free. This is just odd! Like I said, it's having no ill effects on the computer that I can tell.

I really don't have a answer for such a Speccy report.

Could you post one of these so we can see what Windows 7 see the ram as?

Here ya go!

That looks normal to me.

Have you checked to see if Speccy is updated to work with Windows 7/64?
I'm thinking that Speccy is just reporting incorrectly.

Have you changed any setting in Advanced Boot Options?

Speccy is up to date, I'm guessing you're right that it's just mis-reporting. I have not changed any settings in the Advanced Boot Options, I've not done a whole lot to the machine since getting it as I plan to upgrade in the coming months.

Thanks for the replies!

Remove and reinstall Speccy and see what happens.

Still getting the same thing. It's no big deal, don't work too hard on this, as I don't believe there's anything actually wrong with my computer, it's not acting funny, I was just curious as to why this was happening and if anyone had seen it before.
