« on: November 17, 2011, 06:54:15 pm »
Hi I have a  GA-P55M-UD2 mother board running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit

i5 750 @ 2.67GHz 2.66GHZ

4 * 2GB DDR3 Ram

Windows 7 64bit does see 8GB but reports only 4GB is Usable

Any help on solving so all 8GB is used would be much appreciated

Thanks

Hi andy666666,

If you indicate your hardware entirely, like brand and model of the memory, PSU, Graphics Card, etc. please.
With a Web link of this brands model.

At the BIOS, your ram is reported correctly?
Your ram in Motherboard, is in Single or Dual Channel?

Your ram are from the only one brands ? Exactely same models?
