Hi there, I have a bit issue with a Ram Module Memory. I have a Motherboard Brand Biostar Model U8668-D, with 2 Gb of maximun RAM Capability. I'd been installed a a RAM module of 1Gb, but Windows XP shows me only 512 Mb. Did you know How could I do to permit that my PC detect 1 Gb.?

ThanksI'm sorry I forget my PC characteristics:

- HD: 30 Gb.

- CPU: 1,6 Ghz. Intel P4 (Not HT)

- Ram Memory: NCP PC3200 DDR 400

You wouldn't happen to have onboard graphics? If you do check this is not set to 512MB(though I've never heard of a chipset that HIGH)...Just an ideaWell, I've been checked it and the video memory is 64 Mb (This is the INFO that the BIOS shows me in the memory sharing mode).

Does the BIOS see all the RAM / are you sure this is the correct RAM for your system / when did you first notice it?

Alan <>< Sometimes you need a BIOS update to take advantage of that full memory capability. if your current BIOS doesn't recognise the full gig stick, then check for a BIOS update on the manufacturer's website.It may have something to do with RAM speed rating.
You bought:
PC3200 DDR 400
When I go to Biostart web page, your mobo accepts:
PC2100 DDR SDRAM
I don't know, if that's the issue, but it may be.

BTW, when you right click on "My Computer">Properties, how MUCH RAM is listed there?
