Only 3.5GB Ram? Wait I have 4!
Hi guys, I took an older system of mine... an AMD 3200+ x64 @2.42GHZ, a GA-K8U-939 Gigabyte Mobo, 4GB Ram. I did a fresh instal of 7 x64 Ult. and it still reads 3.5GB ram. I know that XP 32bit had an issue with Ram maxing out @ 3.5GB but from experience i understand Vista and 7 (esp. the 64bit versions) would take care of that... after all, both my other computers wee upgraded much the same way and ALL tthe RAM is visible and useable.
I went on the Gigabyte website to maybe get a BIOS upgrade but everytime I use Face or easybios, I get a message that the BIOS is NOT for my operating system and yes, I do choose the Windows 7 64 bit option. i sent out an e-mail to gigabyte 2 days ago and still have no response from them.
What to do? Any ideas?
Your help is much appreciated.
Regards...
