What about Bios Update?

Can you add a screenshot of your system properties (Control Panel -> System) to your post? – Darth Android Dec 29 '11 at 20:09

Perhaps instead of listing what your BIOS can support, how about a list of the ACTUAL hardware involved? :) – techie007 Dec 29 '11 at 20:29
are you using an original cd, some fake cd's parade as 64 but are really 32.. and allot of fakes look real..even activate..but months later de-activate.. but.. unless the motherboard has a memory hole, shows 8gb but reports less.. did you update bios? – ppumkin Dec 29 '11 at 20:30
It is also entirely possible that with 4 DIMM slots then the maximum each slot supports is 2GB, meaning that potentially only half of each of your sticks is being used... – Mokubai Dec 29 '11 at 20:46

Enter the BIOS and go to Advanced Chipset Features -> North Bridge Configuration, then set Memory Remap Feature to [Enabled].

From the manual:

Memory Remap Feature

This item is used to enable/disable memory remap feature. Its mainly for if you have a 64bit OS and 4GB of RAM. Basically it allows you to remap the overlapped PCI memory above the total physical memory.

Also ensure the BIOS is at the latest version, which currently is "964F1P10" dated 11/7/11 (link) – techie007 Dec 29 '11 at 20:32
Did you already try enabling Memory Remap Feature? If you did, download the latest BIOS update and apply it. – Dennis Dec 29 '11 at 21:25
Thanks Darth Android, techie007, ppumkin, Mokubai, Dennis... how to create bootable disc for bios update? – user111436 Dec 29 '11 at 21:28
There is a How to flash BIOS? link on the download page. It explains everything, including How to create Bootable Disk. – Dennis Dec 29 '11 at 21:38

You may need to find and enable "memory remapping" in your motherboard's BIOS/CMOS settings. Also, did you completely disable the Maximum Memory setting?
