  1. How do i fix ram being hardware reserved


    Hello so i recently built a new pc with a new motherboard x570 aorus elite and gpu 1660ti. Now for some reason my ram sticks are 8.1gb hardware reserved when i have 16gb all together. It affects my performance badly is there a way to fix it? context when building i lost a singular pin on my cpu

  2. Reserved hardware ram fix

    I have a Lenovo Legion Slim 5 with 16GB of installed RAM, but 2.3GB is reserved for hardware. I want to fix this issue. I checked the BIOS, and the UMA buffer is set to 512MB. Why is the reserved memory so high, and how can I reduce it?

    Half of RAM 'Hardware Reserved'

    I have 32GB of RAM installed and half is "hardware reserved" by Windows. I've tried every suggestion I can find, including moving the modules around to different slots. My MB does not have onboard graphics. Specs:
    • Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-AX370M-DS3H (BIOS on latest firmware)
    • CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X (upgraded from 1700x and it didn't help)
    • RAM: Corsair VENGEANCE® LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 DRAM 2400MHz C16 Memory Kit
    • GPU: Nvidia RTX-2060 Super
    The BIOS, Windows, CPUZ and HWInfo all show 32GB installed and both slots used, but Windows says "Hardware Reserved: 16.1GB". This was occurring on Windows 10. I am currently running Windows 11 (beta channel) and it didn't help. I also upgraded my CPU from a Ryzen 7 1700 with no change. Pics: Imgur: The magic of the Internet

    - - - Updated - - - NTN, I did the hardware diagnostic you suggested by typing msdt.exe -id DeviceDiagnostic in Run, but no issues were found. - - - Updated - - - I've downloaded the Gigabyte manual and will take a look at it. Thanks
