We figured out, that some DELL laptops simply cannot use more than 3 Gb
RAM, with 32-bit or 64-bit OS.
Because Intel chipset is 32-bit, and Processor is only simulating 64-bit
instructions, and memory also.
It is true also for some ASUS motherboards, like 775 chipsets.

Depending on your video card, a portion of your RAM may be allocated
to graphics processor use, and thus subtracted from the available RAM
numbers.
I thought of that, but according to the specs for the laptop, I don't
think that's it.
It looks like 32-bit Vista will only "see" up to 3GB of RAM installed.
