    Problem with RAM


    Hi,

    My OS is Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and In the BIOS it says I have 4096MB, so the BIOS detects , but when I checked in the System in Windows I've got 4.00 GB (2.62 GB usable).
    I don't know what is a problem and how to solve it.
    Please, someone with bigger knowledge help me.
    Thank you in advance !!!

    P.S.

    I tried to change amount of ram in Advanced options using msconfig.exe in boot section but when I marked Maximum memory and restarted computer everything was the same.

    There is no problem, there`s nothing to solve, you are fine.

    If you want, post a snip of Resource Monitor showing the Memory tab.

    HI Guys,

    I checked and did everything what this link "said" and it didn't help.
    Another thing I know that can be a little less Ram than exactly is installed by in my situation it shows Total 2579
    and Installed 4096. I think that is not right.

    The amount available is within reason, considering you at using a 64 bit OS, which uses more of the available RAM than a 32 bit OS does, along with other hardware RAM requirements. With a 32 bit OS generally 3 to 3.5 GB out of 4 GB is available (but can be less than 3GB depending on hardware).

    If the PC hardware will accept more than 4GB of RAM, increasing the RAM should be considered (and the best option).
