Hi Everybody

I just wanted to know why my computer shows only 2.50gb RAM installed.... but i did put (2*2gb RAM) in my pc

my processor is [Intel Core 2 DUO E4600 2.40GHZ

and the rams that i installed are all DDR2

and i also have a videocard [GEforce 210 1gb]

and i am running a windows 7 32bit OS

please help me
 


Hi You are running a 32 bit Operating system. With 4Gb of installed ram, you will only see 3.5 Gb Max, but most likely 3.0 Gb. You will be using some ram.

but why is it that my computer only shows 2.50gb? because i tried putting one 2gb RAM and 1gb RAM in my two ram slots and my computer displays 3gb installed ram thats why i was wondering why it is only 2.50gb ram

Could be a bad stick. I would just run with the 2 Gb stick and 1 Gb stick for 3 Gb. Thta is most likely all you are going get anyway.
