Thumbs up Re: Where is my RAM ???

Windows XP is a 32bit OS and it supports only 3.25GB RAM
64bits supports more than 4GBs

Search google "XP showing 3.25GB RAM"

Default Re: Where is my RAM ???

Thats the limitation of 32 bit consumer grade windows os like xp & vista.

Buddy install 64 bit vista or xp & you will see the full amount of ram

3.25GB - That's the most 32-bit processors can utilize... 64-bit ones can utilize upto 16 exabytes of RAM

For TV Tuners and other accessories, well, I guess you just have to wait for the manufacturer to release the 64-bit versions.

Most 32 bit apps will run fine on 64 bit OSes.
And pls search before you post. This sort of problem has been asked many times in this forum.
