ACER Aspire 4 gig of ram used only 1.74, how can I fix this?

Hello

I hope that I chose the right forum, if not, please go to the right place.

I have an ACER Aspire 5552-5686, Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit with ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 graphics card. I have the latest version of my bios, 2.14

I have 4 GB of RAM, but windows says only 1.74 is usable. This makes the really small system.

The bios shows 256 MB is reserved for the video card, but there is no way to change the value.

I installed the driver of the card later, he says that 893 MB is used for the video card. Here are the screenshots, sorry, french system:

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

It is the ram that came with your computer and how long have you had?

Looks like one of the sticks failed. He knows that it is there, but cannot use it. That's why you have available 1.7. The autres.3 is used by the video card.

I opened the bottom of your laptop to make sure that the ram is placed correctly.

I'm not sure that your skill level thech but you can remove a stick and see if it boots always. You should see 2 GB available ram usable 1.7. Clear this check box and move the sticks. If it doesn't start with a single one of the sticks then theres your problem. You must replace a stick of RAM.
