6 GB but 5.89 GB usable
Recently, I changed my drive GPT and UEFI Boot
Hi Eddie,.
It's normal, the operating system displays and uses only a portion of the RAM installed and the remaining reserve is of substantive programmes and start screen.
Hope this information helps.

Installed to 32 GB of RAM but only 16 GB usable
I have an iMac 27 ", end of 2013 model. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit on it via BootCamp.
I ordered (4) 8 GB of RAM from Crucial.com and install myself.
Now iMac says he sees the 32 GB but only 16 GB is usable. I have already confirmed on the Apple Support site that this computer can indeed be upgraded to 32 GB. What I'm doing wrong or have not yet done?
All Ram modules have the same specifications?

It is very important.
Did you leave the original Ram in and simply added, or have you put 4 new Ram modules that you suggest and take the original outside?

Satellite A500 - 1 GR - upgrade memory RAM but 3 GB of usable system memory
I have upgraded my laptop to 8 GB (2 * 4 GB) ram. A 64 bit version of Windows 7 shows that I have 8 GB of memory, but there are only 3 GB of usable system memory. How do I use the 8GB. My Bios version is 2.00. In the Bios, I have not found the option 'enable the memory remapping feature '.
This option doesn't exist in the BIOS and everything is controlled automatically. The BIOS update will not change.

64 bit computer 8 GB of RAM but windows shows only usable 3.25
OK, I got the original 6GB (3x2gb) RAM (1600), installed on a MSI 880GM-E43 motherboard and a Phenom II X 4 (I think either 3.6 or 4.0 Ghz) and windows all read well. I buy a new motherboard Gigabyte 970 a - UD3 and another key to 2 GB RAM and install. Now when I go to windows, it says properties
"Memory (live RAM) installed: 8.00 GB (3.25 GB usable). So firstly that I went into the BIOS to check if it shows the correct information and he did. Then I changed my CPU speed clocked 3.4 to 4.0 Ghz. I loaded windows and he always says the same thing "memory (RAM) installed: 8.00 (3.25 GB usable)" and now, the processor has not changed either "processor: AMD Athlon (TM) II X 4 965 3.40 GHz processor".

No doubt you are overclocking... 'Properties' always reports the chip actually, not the speed it is running at a time. Was it to do, it is time when your chip would show at 800 mhz... waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah... :-)

4 GB of RAM, but 2, 99 GB usable on NB510-117
Hello world
I bought the netbook NB510-117 one a few months ago and I recently upgraded the memory to 4 GB. So, in order to exploit all the RAM, I installed windows 7 ultimate which recognizes the memory up to 4 GB. The problem is that in the properties of my computer says Windows ' installed memory: 4 GB (2 GB usable 99).
Obviously the RAM I bought is appropriate ([4 GB DDR3 1066 Mhz | http://s16.postimage.org/4yu4q0zph/Capture.png])
What is going on?
Thank you

It's leaving you with 2.99 GB usable after the address space of the equipment is subtracted from the 4 gb total.
To use your full 12 GB, you will need to run the 64-bit operating system...

8 gb installed on my laptop but 7.88 GB usable!
I have a Dell inspiron 15r is I opened the laptop to see the brand of my Rams I removed one, checked the ram and put it back then I turned on my pc and then realized in the system information indicated its 7.88 GB of ram is usable! until he needed to leave the pc to read the amount of ram?
Hello
It is normal, for the same reason a 2 TB hard drive has only 1.8 to useful. Different ways of measuring a GB give different results...
In addition, a small amount of ram can be reserved for the use of the machine and thus is not "usable" by the operating system.

All webpages to load slow and jerky. Same with the video. I tried refreshing FFox, disable all add-ons and uninstalling/reinstalling. None of this has worked.

Model No.: PSAA8ERecently, my laptop 2 GB memory @ 533 mhz were bad and I decided at this level to 4 GB and carried 2 x 2 GB @ 633 mhz.
Though according to the instructions in the manual, it supports 4 GB maximum, but my bios shows/3 gb.My Windows 7 64 bit, shows 4 gb, but with 3 GB usable.

If you simply want to watch as download you them from your camera, you can simply use the default built in app Preview. He opens them - that is what I use before deciding that one has need of some 'creative' changes or anything, and then drop them into my own folder of Photos (in my documents) that I created when I decided that I did not care to iPhoto or Photos.

EliteBook 8740w thinks that the lid is closed, but it is open?
Hello
I have an EliteBook 8740w running Windows 7 64 bit and I have a strange problem where the laptop seems to think that the cover is closed when it is open.
If the cover is open, the screen is off the touchpad and keyboard, the two do not work and not the function of the buttons volume or wifi. When the screen is almost completely closed the screen turns back on, the keyboard and the mouse are beginning to work again, but it is not usable, because it is about 5 degrees, far from fully closed.
It seems that it is just reverse how it is supposed to work?
All this happened when I unplugged my power cord. The screen turned white and it has been in place since then. I tried several reboots, nothing seems to recover.
I can run on my external monitor very well, so the laptop seems to be otherwise functional
Thanks in advance for any ideas
Maybe you did not reset properly.
Remove the battery and adapter and all the things connected to the laptop.
Hold the power button down for 1 full minute and only plug the adapter back to (do not insert the battery) and start.
The next time you stop everything, install the battery.
