My Windows 7 32bit recognize that I got 4gb installed,but it can only use 3.25gb,and of those only 2 are used by programs because 1gb is being kept for default Windows processes.
@cod6master1 Yes they can, I have Vista Home Premium 64bit and I have 8GB ram. You just need to make sure your motherboard can handle that amount of RAM, has enough slots for the RAM and if it used DDR2 or DDR3. You can get larger and faster RAM with DDR3
@taejamhaha ok 1st of all read my comment again. 2nd of all I know why it goes above 90%, its because of daemon tools. I use it to install games, but daemon tools has some kind of a bug.
what i did.i had my laptop with win 7 home premium.i have activated the copy on 32 bit (the original preinstalled os) than i sow that cant access all the ram ... so i went to a retailer and asked him (nicely :)) ) for a clean 64 copy of win 7 and used the same 32 bit serial number and worked ... u can do the same i think with other versions(did it with PRO to)of win 7 or vista even with a downloaded copy if necessary ( take care to be a clean original copy not to have any kind of problems)
@H34dshotMickey actually you dont need 4gb ram for windows 7 (32).. but if you insist, 32 bit windows 7 only recognizes 3.25 out of 4 gigs installed of ram in your computer... if you want a maximum of 4 gig running, you should upgrade your windows 7 to 64 bit format.. but then again as you were saying, you have 4 gb but only 2 gb usable... i think its more of a mother board issue or one of your RAM is not recognized... you better run it in dual channel.
The most I ever got Windows XP 32 bit to see was 3.2GB with a Pentium 4
I upgradede the processor to a quad-core AMD but kept the same 4GB RAM and installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and lo and behold, the system sees all 4 GB
Also, yes, 32 bit Applications will run on 64 bit Windows. The system will create a folder called Program Files (86x) and install in there. Runs very nice too.
From experience other then gaming, Windows 7 on 4GB, everything from word processing to record (not just playing) 720P video is plenty. I don't remeber surpassing 2GB used outside of gaming. And having 50% empty ram gives a lot of buffer to keep things snappy.
@vgking699 It's probably because your integrated video takes an small amount of your Ram, in your case, your ram is 3GB * 1024 MB = 3072MB - 128 MB = 2944 MB / 1024 MB = 2.875 GB
WinVista/7 (32 bits) can run up to 4 GB ram. XP (32bit) can run up to 2gb, if you want to run it up to 4gb you have to tweak something on winxp and avoid rebooting/install xp 64bit. (Pm me if you want some help)
Hi,.......I'm running win 7 32 bit,........and when I go to my computer properties,.....it says that I have 4GB installed but 3GB usable,......Is it cause my os can recognize only 3GB ? ,.....reply if u know the answer ? thx,.....
Youre all stupid, windows xp 32 will be able to see up to 3.25 and use that, vista 32 detects 4gb but uses 3.25 and on some occasions 4gb fully, now F U chris! :D
i have the same problem i tried different methods on 64 bit and 32 bit OS and also tried removing my graphics card but the problem stil persists .My mother board supports upto 4gb ram but shows only 3 gb which is reported as 3071 in the bios but cpu z show 4096 and there is no memory remapping feature in the bios
64-bit is getting better, now, so now would be a good time to jump into it. Most driver support even for weird devices that I use in music software is handled pretty well.
I have 64 bit windows 7 with 4GB for now...but I have measured my CPU output/usage with a few free programs. It uses between 0.6GB and 1 GB just running and I have not seen it go higher than 2.6 GB with programs running...I am sure if I overclocked, I could max it, but there's no need
@SOF006 actually if you add a physical address extension to the kernel you can use as much ram as you want in 32 bit. :-) Look it up. it's one of those things that Microsoft wants to keep a Secret. Intel invented it. It works Well. Linux users Like me Use it all the Time. Most of your Programs are still 32 bit anyways so a PAE is all you really need for Now. :-) unless you Multitask like a crazy man you wont see any difference form PAE to 64Bit. it benchmarks pretty close to the same.
@taejamhaha No, that actually doesn't work. It makes the system recognise 4GBs but the system doesn't actually take advantage of it. I should know i've tried it myself.
@SOF006 well im glad im using 32 bit becuase i never use all of my 3 gb and for some reason the last gigabyte is reserved for video card as a system reserve
man i also can run mah vista with crappy 1 gb... -.- seriously...this guy has no clue what he is talkin about...3.25 gb = highest 32bit support.....and i am 18...
3.25 is the right amount in some would be more or less. It depends, actually it is recognizing 4gb of ram, but the 500-900 mb ram is missing due to system reserved memory. More system memory will be used if you have a onboard GPU depending on the Video Aperture Size being allocated in the BIOS and even more if you have a decent GPU as of today.
i have this FUCKING problem in my computer windows\system32\config\system\ when the middle of my playing in my computer it will hang up..but when i restart my computer it say's that windows\system32\config\system\..i cant use my computer now :( because of this fucking system32 or something..i have my laptop..can i copy the windows\system32 and paste it over in my corrupt cpu? pls reply BRITIC..pls dont say "please post problem on our forum for free help" thanks a lot
wrong 32 bit max is 4gb but usually if u have graphics card some of that is deleted off so its liek 3gb or 3.512gb max so ye ull never reach 4gb with graphics card but yes it will recongnize more then 2 gb
windows xp 32 can see upp to 4Gb of total memory... both grafic and work mem o if u are using xp 32Bit and have instald 4Gb ram and have a grafic kard that have 512Mb then take away the 512 from yout ram ... 4096-512=3584 Mb ram dos the system recognice...
well i got a laptop that was 2 gb of ram my dad upgraded it to 64bit and it wasnt enough to for me so i put in 4 gb ins but i am now running windows 7 use seven windows basic is faster than vista vista sucks 7 runs alot of xp drivers and vista didnt
it seems funny what people were thinking back few years ago that said 4gb was too much back then. today 4gb became the absolutely minimum for data amange and multi-media/gaming. especially blue ray eats huge chunk of memory and nearly full loading in both cpu and gpu. a modern desktop will equip with standard size of 8/12gb ram and high end can even go up to 24/32/48gb of ram. 4gb is way too small!
well even if you have 2gb of ram, if you use 64 bit you can reach like 30 gb or even more of virtual memory, versus having a limit i think of 2gb-4gb of virtual memory, on a 32 bit, depending of how many partition do you have. i mean, this is useful depending of your pc usage. but i do need both memory ram and virtual memory.
GREAT EXPLANATION.. Stop watching the video by the time you sayd that a 32 s.o. only recognizes 2 gb because... IT RECOGNIZES AND USES 3GB. not just 2.
What's the poing of doing these videos if you're giving wrong informations?!
@bkisme 4GB is the max for 32 bit... buuuut other devices that have built in ram get assigned addresses... Maybe he has a video card with 2GB of ram and he only saw 2GB? idk, I know Windows Starter editions only allow 2GB...
@bkisme For sure, a lot of people don't realize though that devices that have built in ram get assigned the same addresses as the main memory, so there's only so many possible addresses and if you have ram in other places that'll get taken out of your 4GB, I'm very surprised Chris thinks the limit is 2GB unless he's mis-speaking it because that's basic A+ tech stuff
@bkisme you might also be misinformed, 32 bit operating systems can recognize up to 3.75 GB of RAM, and 64 bit operating systems can recognize (theoretically) up to 128 GB of RAM, but it can also depend on your system, as he was saying, with computers, especially talking speed, you are only as strong as your weakest link, so say if your CPU cant proccess and put out the information quick enough for the RAM to relay it, it doesnt matter how much RAM you have, your system will still run slower.
x64 cant run 16bit 8086 mode? you're kidding me? my xp x64 runs whatever any dos program smoothly without issue. the 16 bit issue is proved that is exclusive on vista/7 based os where the new api(dx10/11, hardware managing accelerator, super fatch...etc) will have huge conflict with dos based code. not just on 64bit but also on 32bit vista/7 as well. so basically 64bit cant run dos is just busted myth
This is why the total addressable space available in a 32 bit OS is 4GB the OS runs out of addresses and cannot communicate/locate any more bytes of memory because of that.
In a computer all bytes in the memory system need a unique name. This is called an address. For example, if you have 2 GB of main memory, then there are 2147483648 bytes of RAM in your machine, each of which require an address for the operating system to communicate to it. To give these all an address you need 31 bits to do it. Now, if/when you have 32 bits, you can name 4 GB (2 bytes to the 32nd power = 4GB).
Make sure your not limited to the 2GB, application, 2Gb Kernel, possible 3.2GB of the possible 4 billion (4GB) 32bit addresses which is the limitation of 32bit memory address space with the 32bit OS. If you have 64bit hardware. Most Hardware now is Native 64bit. With 64bit comes native compatibility for all 32bit software anyway. Definately BUY 64bit. Whereas 4, 6, 8, 16, 24GB. But difference in performance is negligable if you are running 32bit apps software in 64bit OS environment. More Mem!
The limitation is caused by what is known as, the memory hole. With a 32bit OS, it can, in theory, address 4Gb of memory. It will not address that much if the PCI bus has devices with onboard memory. Those devices have to have a reserved address space, which usually conflicts with the memory in your system. In most cases, video cards now ship with between 512Mb and 1Gb of ram, in some cases, more. PCI bus with devices that have onboard memory will eat away the amount of RAM your OS can address.
1.Open a command prompt (Press Window key + R to open the Run dialog, and then type cmd).
2.Press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to execute (this allows you to run cmd in administrative mode if you havent already setup up a permanent admin mode).
3.Type BCDedit /set PAE forceenable.
This PAE flag (Physical Address Extension) tells the Vista core to use an additional 4 bits of addressing, which in theory allows the OS to see all of the RAM you have available.
Your not out of the woods yet, once you reboot you may find that Vista still doesnt see all of your RAM. You can turn PAE off again by typing BCDedit /set PAE forcedisable or BCDedit /set PAE default.
basically there is not enough numbers to be allocated to a 32bit, 4GB the width is at its limit 64bit = 8gb hence to gain more memory or effectively exceed this limit we use registered RAM where each ram module has a buffer chip ram is handled by the buffer and the motherboard only sees the buffer chip not the larger density of ram hidden away. registered ram has a higher latency so its best to use unbuffered. intels new CPU solves this with 3 Independent bus's each 8gb max for unbuffered
lol 32bit is limited to 4gb windows sees 3.2gb because the bios allocates address space as a 32bit system can not address above 4gb. Hence memory remapping feature is where the bios sends the address range above 4gb on 32bit systems effectively making 4.6gb lets say. windows does not support this feature so windows remaps it back into the 4gb address range. Linux is the only OS i know of that supports 32bit 4gb remapping on x86 but then graphics drivers(ATI) don't support it lol
that doesn't make sense because I had 4gb of RAM on a 32bit vista and it recognized all of it

it seems funny what people were thinking back few years ago that said 4gb was too much back then. today 4gb became the absolutely minimum for data amange and multi-media/gaming. especially blue ray eats huge chunk of memory and nearly full loading in both cpu and gpu. a modern desktop will equip with standard size of 8/12gb ram and high end can even go up to 24/32/48gb of ram. 4gb is way too small!

i have 64 bit Windows7 ultimate and 4 GB ram but i says that it reads only 3.25GB What to do ?
TheAuchamp1 1 year ago
If you get 4GB ram on vista or win 7 32 bit, it will say 4.00GB, 3.00GB usable. So it only uses 3GB.

@poilut2 I say go for 3gigs. I believe 3.2 - 3.5 is the max 32 bit will recognize, so it makes more sense to go with 3 gigs.

well even if you have 2gb of ram, if you use 64 bit you can reach like 30 gb or even more of virtual memory, versus having a limit i think of 2gb-4gb of virtual memory, on a 32 bit, depending of how many partition do you have. i mean, this is useful depending of your pc usage. but i do need both memory ram and virtual memory.

GREAT EXPLANATION.. Stop watching the video by the time you sayd that a 32 s.o. only recognizes 2 gb because... IT RECOGNIZES AND USES 3GB. not just 2.
What's the poing of doing these videos if you're giving wrong informations?!

@bkisme 4GB is the max for 32 bit... buuuut other devices that have built in ram get assigned addresses... Maybe he has a video card with 2GB of ram and he only saw 2GB? idk, I know Windows Starter editions only allow 2GB...
kencluck3 1 year ago
@kencluck3 Anyone with a 2gb video card (Generally $200+) still running a 32 bit OS is a complete idiot.
And on another note, anyone running "Windows XP Starter Edition" with anymore than 2 gigs of RAM installed is also a complete idiot.
If you have a 2GB video card, 4 gigs of RAM, and Windows Starter Edition... May your deity help you, because I sure can't.
bkisme 1 year ago
@bkisme For sure, a lot of people don't realize though that devices that have built in ram get assigned the same addresses as the main memory, so there's only so many possible addresses and if you have ram in other places that'll get taken out of your 4GB, I'm very surprised Chris thinks the limit is 2GB unless he's mis-speaking it because that's basic A+ tech stuff
kencluck3 1 year ago
@bkisme Look at the date, 2007. Windows Vista builds back in 2007 could only read up to 2GB.

Ammo720 1 year ago
@bkisme you might also be misinformed, 32 bit operating systems can recognize up to 3.75 GB of RAM, and 64 bit operating systems can recognize (theoretically) up to 128 GB of RAM, but it can also depend on your system, as he was saying, with computers, especially talking speed, you are only as strong as your weakest link, so say if your CPU cant proccess and put out the information quick enough for the RAM to relay it, it doesnt matter how much RAM you have, your system will still run slower.

x64 cant run 16bit 8086 mode? you're kidding me? my xp x64 runs whatever any dos program smoothly without issue. the 16 bit issue is proved that is exclusive on vista/7 based os where the new api(dx10/11, hardware managing accelerator, super fatch...etc) will have huge conflict with dos based code. not just on 64bit but also on 32bit vista/7 as well. so basically 64bit cant run dos is just busted myth

This is why the total addressable space available in a 32 bit OS is 4GB the OS runs out of addresses and cannot communicate/locate any more bytes of memory because of that.
LoveJesusLoveJehovah 1 year ago
In a computer all bytes in the memory system need a unique name. This is called an address. For example, if you have 2 GB of main memory, then there are 2147483648 bytes of RAM in your machine, each of which require an address for the operating system to communicate to it. To give these all an address you need 31 bits to do it. Now, if/when you have 32 bits, you can name 4 GB (2 bytes to the 32nd power = 4GB).
LoveJesusLoveJehovah 1 year ago
Make sure your not limited to the 2GB, application, 2Gb Kernel, possible 3.2GB of the possible 4 billion (4GB) 32bit addresses which is the limitation of 32bit memory address space with the 32bit OS. If you have 64bit hardware. Most Hardware now is Native 64bit. With 64bit comes native compatibility for all 32bit software anyway. Definately BUY 64bit. Whereas 4, 6, 8, 16, 24GB. But difference in performance is negligable if you are running 32bit apps software in 64bit OS environment. More Mem!
LoveJesusLoveJehovah 1 year ago
The limitation is caused by what is known as, the memory hole. With a 32bit OS, it can, in theory, address 4Gb of memory. It will not address that much if the PCI bus has devices with onboard memory. Those devices have to have a reserved address space, which usually conflicts with the memory in your system. In most cases, video cards now ship with between 512Mb and 1Gb of ram, in some cases, more. PCI bus with devices that have onboard memory will eat away the amount of RAM your OS can address.

It recognizes 2.5 GB, seems to bust the 2GB ceiling described in this video. Also, no modifications to the BIOS or anything.

1.Open a command prompt (Press Window key + R to open the Run dialog, and then type cmd).
2.Press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to execute (this allows you to run cmd in administrative mode if you havent already setup up a permanent admin mode).
3.Type BCDedit /set PAE forceenable.
This PAE flag (Physical Address Extension) tells the Vista core to use an additional 4 bits of addressing, which in theory allows the OS to see all of the RAM you have available.
jeffhudsonutube 2 years ago
Your not out of the woods yet, once you reboot you may find that Vista still doesnt see all of your RAM. You can turn PAE off again by typing BCDedit /set PAE forcedisable or BCDedit /set PAE default.

64 better for gaming? no...
because the games are still made 32 bit. If producers would make games 64 bit, half of the game world would get stuck.
If people have 64 a bit version, I recommend using it by having atleast 6 gb of RAM. 64 bit itself.. can be good, but it's not realy necessary.

salvadorianvago 2 years ago
basically there is not enough numbers to be allocated to a 32bit, 4GB the width is at its limit 64bit = 8gb hence to gain more memory or effectively exceed this limit we use registered RAM where each ram module has a buffer chip ram is handled by the buffer and the motherboard only sees the buffer chip not the larger density of ram hidden away. registered ram has a higher latency so its best to use unbuffered. intels new CPU solves this with 3 Independent bus's each 8gb max for unbuffered
fireicer 2 years ago
lol 32bit is limited to 4gb windows sees 3.2gb because the bios allocates address space as a 32bit system can not address above 4gb. Hence memory remapping feature is where the bios sends the address range above 4gb on 32bit systems effectively making 4.6gb lets say. windows does not support this feature so windows remaps it back into the 4gb address range. Linux is the only OS i know of that supports 32bit 4gb remapping on x86 but then graphics drivers(ATI) don't support it lol
