Windows 10 confirms 8 GB RAM installed with 4 GB available.
The RAM details in Windows 10 show 8 GB installed with 4 GB available, while the BIOS lists 4 GB installed. The Windows 7 BIOS reports 8 GB installed. This inconsistency might be due to different BIOS versions or settings affecting how memory is reported.
or it was a dead stop, or you split up and somehow assigned multiple partitions for those jobs.
I encountered an issue with my old laptop using a 2 x 2 GB DDR memory, but the motherboard only supports up to 3 GB. This is likely due to a BIOS limitation specific to my model (IBM Thinkpad T60). In theory it could work, but no updates are being released anymore. I suspect both my board and the BIOS might be outdated. If the BIOS indicates only 4 GB available, that’s what will be usable. Sorry about the inconvenience. Try searching online for your motherboard model—there might be a BIOS modification guide. Proceed with caution when updating, ensuring you use a reliable source to avoid damaging your system.
I reinstalled the ram in different order and it worked but 1 problem is still there which is windows doesn't load in first boot. Need to restart the PC to load windows. But it doesn't happen for windows 7. Does anyone know why its hapenning? Edited March 25, 2020 by ahnaf125
