Windows 10: getting a bsod after setting maximum memory on msconfig

Hello. I want to ask something related to the RAM installed on my computer. There is 8GB of RAM installed but only 5.95GB can be used. Then I watched a video on YouTube to solve the "useable RAM" and there is one way, namely by clicking maximum memory and set it to maximum. then my computer got a "memory management" bsod and i was forced to reinstall my windows. luckily there are no important files on my computer. this makes me a bit disappointed when playing big games that require at least 8gb ram and the game message says that my ram is less than 8gb even though i already have 8gb installed

A question about "Maximum Memory" in msconfig

Msconfig - Maximum Boot Memory Setting defaulting to 0

Hi,

I have a Fujitisu Windows 10 PC with 16GB of RAM. I need to set the memory to 8192 in msconfig > Boot > Advanced Options > Maximum Memory. However, when I try to set it, as soon as you click 'OK' and go back into it, it has defaulted to 0 (even when using
'Make Boot Settings Permanent').

I am able to set it to 2048 and below but 8192 will not stay as the setting. If you put in other amounts it will change the number to a seemingly arbitrary figure (e.g 8000 > 3904) but the setting will stay. I try 8192 again and no success.

I have tried using the command line truncate memory command which does change the available memory, but changing it in this manner is then not reflected in msconfig, which is required for the software to interface with the hardware.

How am I able to get the 8192 value to set? This is required for some very specific hardware and the supplier says it is an OS issue.

Thanks in advance.

Aidan
