1159500	2010-12-06 22:20:00	Why is that - thought 64 bit applications used all 4 GB? What's the other 1 GB doing?	Fishb8 (484)
1159501	2010-12-06 22:24:00	Whats the videocard?? Onboard? PCI-E? How much ram is on it?	Speedy Gonzales (78)
1159502	2010-12-06 22:30:00	Where does it display 2.94GB? If you right click Computer and go to Properties, can you show us what it displays there - for OS, Processor, and memory?	inphinity (7274)

1159504	2010-12-07 00:04:00	Thats probably where 1 GB went - that card	Speedy Gonzales (78)
1159505	2010-12-07 00:17:00	I'd say it's just a coincidence that your GPU has 1GB of RAM and you're missing 1GB of usable RAM, but it may well be your video card causing it for other reasons. See if you can find a setting in your BIOS something along the lines of "Shared VGA Memory". If you can't find it/aren't comfortable in the BIOS, post up your model of motherboard and I'll have a quick squizzle for you.	pablo d (15490)
1159506	2010-12-07 00:18:00	Thats probably where 1 GB went - that card No, that's not correct, 64bit will show all memory period, i suspect the program is reporting wrong.. OP - go to control panel>system and report o/s and ram shown there.	SolMiester (139)
1159507	2010-12-07 00:22:00	Or follow post #3 instructions. Then take a screenshot.	Snorkbox (15764)
1159508	2010-12-07 00:27:00	Actually does your 9500GT have/use "Turbocache"?	pablo d (15490)
1159509	2010-12-07 00:31:00	Are you 100% sure you are running 64bit?	wratterus (105)
