Your system has more RAM than you think, but only a portion is available for use. The remaining 8GB is likely reserved for the operating system or other processes. To free up space, consider cleaning up temporary files, uninstall unused programs, and check for background applications consuming memory. If the issue persists, run a disk cleanup or update your drivers.

This could clarify why all extra RAM is flagged as reserved in Windows 7.

I managed to install it, though I couldn't locate the BIOS configuration on my motherboard.

Consider placing all the memory in channel 1 on the motherboard if you're familiar with disassembling it.

Additionally, consider using this approach. It should appear in the System folder under advanced settings.

In the BIOS settings, if you don't locate it, capture a screenshot of your BIOS display and share it.

I haven't located any advanced settings for that model. It's possible it doesn't have them available or they're not labeled as such.
