    Ram hardware reserved


    I have a small problem, in my desktop PC I have 16 gb ram DDR 4, and that's ok, but one day I decided to add additional 8 gb, and there is a problem, bios seeing all 24 gb but windows decided to reserve 12 gb. How to solve this?

    Thanks in advance.

    My system: Mb: ASRock b450 chipset CPU: amd ryzen 5 2600

    Ram hardware reserved

    Problem about RAM & Hardware reserved. Need advice.

    Hi, some similar reports have been posted- if you search for these, ignore those related to using 32bit Windows on >4Gb RAM- that's not your situation of course.

    Noted there are differences in the last two CPU-Z reports on your RAM, which may suggest something about that in slot 2.

    See e.g.
    Hardware reserved memory issue - Windows 10 Forums
    on RAM issues.

    I have 24GB installed RAM (7.95 usable) How do I fix this? - Windows 10 Forums
