How to enable 4GB in my Windows 7 64 bit?

My Windows 7 is 64-bit, and I thought that means it can use the full 4GB of RAM installed on the computer.

But I just saw this on my computer's properties: (So only 3.25GB is usable??)

This is usually down to either memory being shared against a graphics card or a motherboard limitation that prevents 4GB of memory being accessible.

Graphics card seems to be more often the case as far as I have seen – AdamV Nov 8 '09 at 8:30

Have you checked how much ram your video is sharing? Although with an experience score of 5.9 it's not too likely you are using on-board. Something to clarify in the details anyway.
