Ted no disrepect but did you even read my post?
I said that very same thing in my post. Im aware that it will not see anything more then 4gig less the memory for hardware.
Did you look at the picture i posted? it is showing 2.46 that is unacceptable and a far cry from 3.5 as most video cards shoulw only reserve a few mb
There are numerous threads on this issue however none of the current propsed fixes worked which is why i wanted to see if anyone know anything else.
it is reserveing over 5GIG for hardware
There is obviously something wrong
Thanks for the ideas though
