Hi
I have hp 6200 (8 GB RAM) installed WIN 7 on it.
In the computer property it show 8 GB (3318 MB usable), I checked the resource monitor too, it shows 4874 MB memory is hardware reserved! I also unchecked "Maximum memory" in the boot tab in system config, but nothing changed.
Can anyone help me with this!
Cheers

Hi:
The answer to that question is simple...
A 32 GB operating system can only 'see and use' a maximum of 4 GB.
If you want close to the 8 GB to show up, you will need to install a 64 bit OS.
