VISTA - RAM
Can anyone tell my why Vista only recognizes 2 gig of RAM, even when I have
4 gig installed? My BIOS sees 4 gig. I may not be the smartest person in the world, but why would a MB manufacture sell a MB that supports up to 8 gig ram, when the OS only sees 2 gig? Any help or explanation will be appreciated.

See the following article that discusses why you are seeing less RAM than expected. Windows Vista or Windows Server 2003 may report less memory than you expect: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929580 -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Buz Fuller" wrote in message . ..
