cannot use the gpu.

I buy a new hp g6-1139 tx. with 2 GB of ram, 1 GB dedicated ati redone gpu hd, 1 GB integrated intel hd gpu

---> total 2 + 1 + 1 = 4 GB of memory.

now, I add 2 GB of ram to my laptop. so in total 4 bg ram.

---> total 4 + 1 + 1 = 6 GB memory...

I know that win 7 32 bits of the system can supports only 3.6 GB of memory... It can therefore something tht I see only 2.45 GB of ram in my computer property & I don't see my ati graphics card in DXDIAG... coz it use 3.5 GB of ram + 1 GB intel gpu = 3.6 GB

Hi Jay,.

If this is the case you need X 64 Bit drivers for the Card Ati Radeon you have in your computer.

Therefore, you may have to download it from the HP website. or directly from ATI (if the graphics card was provided by hp then the HP drivers should work.)

I found something for you, the difference between X 64 and X 86

Windows 7 64 bit comes in handy when you need to deal with at least 4 GB of RAM or more. Windows 7 32 bit can use up to 3.2 GB of RAM. Because the address space of memory is much larger for 64-bit Windows, this means that you need two times more memory than the 32-bit Windows to accomplish some of the same task, but you are able to do much more, you can have more apps open, do things like run a virus scan in the background it will affect the performance of your system. 64-bit Windows 7 is safer too, malicious code cannot easily infiltrate it, drivers are more reliable because they must be signed before it can work with 64 bit Windows 7.

Regarding compatibility, you need device drivers 64-bit hardware devices, you may have. In addition, there is no 16-bit subsystem in Windows 7 64-bit, which means, your applications must be 32-bit only, not 16-bit Installer or programs uninstaller.

Thank you
