This morning I added 2GB more to my system. My bios is only showing me with 3008MB total when there is 4 chips of 1GB a piece in there. shows 3008MB in bios and 2.93GB in Windows Vista 64bit when I load up

Im using the new Asus board the P5b-Plus with newest bios updates

Any advice?

Update -

I found a pci memory remapping thing in my bios, once I enabled it and rebooted it showed all of my memory in my bios and in Windows.

Switch around the ram in the slots

I guess you could try memtest86. Maybe 1 stick is stable and just messing the rest up

I actually also have 4gbs on my commando and have the same thing, however I tested all sticks and all work.
Windows does not detect the 4gb obviously but cpu-z does.

But then again to make sure try each stick sep and run memtest

Thats strange CPU-Z is showing me with 4GB, but my Bios and Windows Vista 64bit do not

Higgins

windows vista 64bit should tho

test the sticks like suggested above.

Vista 64 SHOULD recognize them though...

Try reflashing your BIOS since you installed the memory? Or was that before....I dono...worth a try....

I did a google search looking for answers and theres posts that recommend using the p5b's memory remapping feature. anyone know what it is or what it does?
