only 3.28 gb shows up in bios

[sabastiaan]

hello, i have 2x2gb

bios shows 3.28gb memory and windows says 3.25 out of 4gb usable, when i go to taskmanger it shows 770mb reserved for hardware

i do have a onboard graphicscard but i don't know how to turn it of, neither can i find memory mapping

I haven't capped my max memory in windows settings

My motherboard is an asus m5a78 lm

Reserved memory is reserved. This is allocated to vital system functions. This can not be changed unfortunately.

It's completely normal. Your hardware needs some.

but 778 mb!?

the thing i don''t understand is why my motherboard says total ram 3.28gb and avaialble 3.27gb

 

[Novuake]

Your lucky, some 4GB systems used to drop to like 2.9GB usable.

 

[kelvin08113]

Take it easy man... just 0.01GB! Anyway mine used 775MB, it's 100% normal!

also the thing i dont understand is that before i ran some can i run it tests and they showed that i had 3.9 gb a few times

that was on the same amount of ram and motherboard

Yes, that is counting the reserved RAM. Some programs will show it that way.

 

[kelvin08113]

Go ahead and do your stuffs! Nothing to worry about this, trust me.
