Hi,
I upgraded the memory of my computer from 512 Mb tot 1,5 Gb. I did this by
installing a 1 Gb stick in a free memory slot (so the other slot already
contained a 512 Mb memory stick).
The (windows-) program CPU-Z reports the correct amount memory installed -
so far no problem. However, the task manager of Windows XP Home reports only
982252 kb, so about 1 Gb.
Obviously the question is: why does Windows XP detect only 1 Gb?
Some more info:
- motherboard Asus P5RD2-VM
- CPU: intel pentium D915, socket 775 LGA
- memory is DDR2. Max bandwidth slot 1 (512 Mb stick) is 266 Mhz, max
bandwidth slot 2 (1 Gb stick) is 333 Mhz
Q1) What does the General Tab of the property sheet for "My Computer" report as the memory? (Right-click "My Computer" and select "Properties..." from the menu that appears.)
Q2) What does BIOS report as the available memory.
