    Running 32 bit Windows 7

    4 Gb memory installed and only reading 3.25 Gb

    What is the easiest way to get my OS to read & use the full 4 gigs of memory.

    Without coverting to 64 bit of course.

    Thanks for keeping it simple

    if its a laptop it may be dedicated so much ram to the video so if its 4 gbs and about 768 of dedicated memory you would get about 3.25gbs of ram

    I think you may need to go to 64 bit.
