  2. Hardware reserved problem (1.48 gb usable of 4gb ram)

    I have 2 ram of 2gb, both are working but when i insert them in laptop, laptop shows only 1.48 gb usable and 2.5 gb hardware reserved. If i insert only 1 ram (no matter which one) then it shows 1.48 gb usable so the
    problem is even if i add my another ram it simply goes to hardware reserved. my laptop is hp pavillion g4 and i'm using windows 10 64 bit. Please help me on this.

  4. 5 GB of RAM being hardware reserved

    Why is 8.1 GB reserved for hardware?

    Recently I added 8 GB of ram to my machine so that it would run Photoshop more smoothly. But when I installed the memory and ran the program I realized that 8.1 GB of 16 GB is reserved for hardware making only 5 GB available to Photoshop which is not enough.
    So I wanted to know if there was a way to reduce the reserve and make more memory available to my system.

    Machine specs.

    Ryzen 1600

    16 GB Crucial memory

    2 TB hard drive
