| 246642 | 2004-06-21 12:15:00 | My Gigabyte GA-8KNXP motherboard is fitted with Corsair TwinX Dual Channel Memory kit (2-sticks) of 2x256MB, DDR-SDR. At Startup the Memory is displayed as only 125MB. Why can this be? |

Sounds like Video Card Ram is being displayed. This is the first things that shows up with the card description. The MB Ram will not show up unless the POST memory test is on in BIOS. |

| 246648 | 2004-06-22 06:59:00 | Thanks Guys I tried the My Computer>Properties and it stated "512MB of RAM" . I think you are correct about the Video card info being displayed as it does have 128MB DDR . That has settled my mind, thanks again . Peter . |
