4Gb RAM, 32bit Vista
i feel confused seeing different answers. some say it is wasted, some say it
is not.
i heard that the rest of RAM is used for hardware addressing purposes. can
someone clearify on that please?
HP says my notebook can run 64bit vista, but i dont think i'd spend time to
change it fearing that something may not work.

After installing SP1 on Vista, the system properties report that I have 4Gb
RAM installed, which is true.
However it seems that from the Task Manager, it only can handle up to 3 Gb
RAM. So is the other 1Gb wasted? Or is it actually in use for other invisible
purposes?
NO it is NOT wasted, yes it is available, just not reported.
