Product: HP 2000-2209TU
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

I have "HP 2000-2209TU" with window 7-32 bit. I have installed another RAM of 4 GB DDR3 but properties of my notebook still show (2.65gb usable)

 

what is the reason behind it and can I increase the Ram as of now my system is running on 2 gb.

 

Could you please let me know the exact RAM to be used for  my system!

 

Thanks!

Welcome to the HP Support Community  @Tarun6 

 

32bit system have a max memory of 4GB.

 

32-bit Windows has an address space of 4GB. Part of that is used by system BIOSes and graphics memory. With a 256MB graphics card about 3.3-3.5GB of RAM can be addressed and used, assuming you have 4GB fitted. If you fit a graphics card with 1GB of memory only about 2.6-2.8GB of the RAM would be addressable and usable.
