Hello, all. I'll try to keep this as short and simple as possible. I've got 4 GB of ram in my system. About a week and a half ago, my video card ended up dying, and I bought a replacement. My old card had 256 mb of ram on it, and the new card supposedly has 512 mb of ram on it. I had a company

I'm using xp media center, so does that mean it should be recognizing my full 4 GB? Any theories on why this isn't the case, and how I might go about fixing it? I'm just curious, because if a tech couldn't figure it out, I'm assuming it must be pretty complicated. Mostly, I'm baffled as to why

If in fact you're sharing memory then no way will you pick up the entire amount. Now having said that the fact is your memory card shouldn't be sucking up probably no more than 256. Normally they take 128 such as what is on my wife's system. David Ferrin - Original Message - From:

Hi Missy, How did you confirm that RAM size when you checked it? Was it during boot up and you saw the RAM counter count out the memory on your system, or did you go through a program on your computer? If you go to the My Computer icon on your desktop, then press alt+enter to get to the

Hi! Bios and software such as cpuz recognize my full 4 GB of memory, so I'm 99% definite it isn't a hardware issue. The 2.5 GB is reported when I do properties under my computer; the whole problem is that I'm pretty definite it reported 3 GB before the video card change. I thought I made that
