32 bit operating systems can't use the full 4GB or RAM on your machine. To fix it, you need to use a 64 bit operating system. To explain it further... 32 bits can only access 4GB of memory because 2 to the 32 power is 4 billion. So 2 to the 32 power is 4 GB. Included in that accessing memory space is video memory and other hardware related stuff, which takes away from your 4GB of addressable RAM. | ||||

Perhaps NVIDIA ION that uses 0.5 GB (of the 3 GB Win7 x86 can use)? | |||
