RAM in Vista
Installed Vista Ultimate x86, no problems. But windows still only sees 2 gigs of RAM(I have 4). I thought Vista was going to see up to 8 gigs?
Any suggestions?
I'm running on Dell XPS 600, 4 gigs of RAM, Intel Dual Core Extreme processor
Thanks

2GB limit
you have 32bit hardware. you would need to have 64bit hardware (and the correct 64bit version of Vista) to see more than 2GB of memory. Then the limit will be 9exa-byte.
