    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

    16GB RAM only 8GB usable on Windows 10 x64

    have 16GB of RAM installed on my computer, but only 8GB is usable. I am running Windows 10 x64. I have tried the following steps to fix this issue, but they have not worked:

    1. I have updated the BIOS to the latest version.
    2. I have tried reseating the RAM modules.
    3. I have tried using different RAM modules.
    4. I have tried run-MSConfig
    I am still not able to use all 16GB of RAM. Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    [Ahmed Hashem]

    Upgraded 8GB of Ram

    Ram Upgrade

    My laptop is a HP ProBook 4540s with 4 GB RAM installed. My question is

    What is the largest amount of Ram I can upgrade it to? Should I add a 4GB chip or have it removed to install 1 8GB chip?

    Is there a large cost difference? I am running the latest version of Windows 10 Pro.

    • Standard
      • DDR3 PC3-10600 SDRAM (1333 MHz)
        Two SODIMM slots supporting dual-channel memory.
        2GB and 4GB SODIMMs
    • Maximum
      • Upgradeable to 8192MB with optional 4096MB SODIMMs in slots 1 and 2.
    • Dual-channel
      • Maximized dual-channel performance requires SODIMMs of the same size and speed in both memory slots.
