I basically tried everything .. Swapping rams / different slots / holding the memok button / memory remapping / holding on to the power button for 30 secs /
My Processor : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 860 @ 2.80 GHZ
My windows task manager says my total memory is 2038.
On System it says ...
Ok
So I installed Windows 7 on my desktop of awesomeness.
Stats: Intel Q9400 CPU
Velociraptor 300G/10,000 Spin Primary Drive
W/D Caviar Green 1 TB Storage Drive
8gigs of matched ocz platinum ddr2 RAM
1000 watt psu (OCZ ELIREXTREAM)
Running Vista Home Premium
