    Windows shows 8GB RAM installed but 4GB RAM is usable

    Hi There,

    I've just upgraded my pc from 4GB RAM to 8GB RAM. Windows seems to have detected this upgrade but why does it show as only 4GB RAM available. The following is what I have tried so far with no luck:

    • I have tried the msconfig method on ensuring maximum memory is not checked.
    • physically removed the new RAM and reinstalled it
    Any thoughts/suggestions on how i can resolve this matter?

    Thanks

    1.71gb Usable RAM of 4gb

    I have Windows 10 32 bit installed in my laptop. I upgraded the memory to 2+2gb. It has two slots. BIOS Says that the RAM is 4gb Installed. But in my windows it looks different. It has 4gb, 2.98gb Usable. I try to replugging the RAM. After it, the usable
    RAM is 1.71gb of 4gb ram. I have tried to uncheck maximum memory in MsConfig, but nothing was happened. You can see the shared memory in the image below. I tried to open the bios, it says 4 gb of ram installed. My laptop is Lenovo B40-45 with AMD APU A8-6410
    Processor. How to solve the problem? Help me please

    RAM - Missing 2GB of active RAM

    Ok, then I suggest you to manually test each RAM bank.

    Please start the system with 1bank and check the ram installed (I suggest you to start with the two 4GB, once a time). See if they are seen as 4GB or 2 GB.

    Microsoft Edge using an UNGODLY Amount of RAM: Edge uses upwards of 5gb ram with a few tabs open. It uses 2gb ram with only 1-2 tabs (like google searches), and still uses 1.5gb when closed (why does it do that?).
