vista 5536 don't see my full memory size
5536 is 32 bit. Were you using a 64 bit version before? With a 32 bit OS you
are limited to 4 GB and the motherboard reserves some of it for I/O. -- Kerry MS-MVP Windows - Shell/User http://www.vistahelp.ca/forum/Forum.htm geo85706 wrote: in installed 5536 and the first thing i saw was that i missing a whole gig of memory. vista beta 2 sees the 4 gig but not 5536, is this normal or what. |

i can not understand why 5536 does not. -- geo "Rob Mallicoat" wrote: The last 512mb is reserved for legacy #@%@#%@ It is a 32bit thing... try installing teh 64bit build and it sees all...
