  • yeah i remember , its because 32 bit can only see up to 3.5 gb and i think a 64 bit can see up to 7.5 or 8 gb but im not sure on that.

  • @Bobytalent 32 bit can see up to 2.75GB-3.75GB. It depends on your hardware. 64 bit can see up to 192GB, in some editions of Windows 7.

  • hey i had 4gb before formatted my pc now only showing 3001mb is there a way to get it back ill sub if u message me back :)

  • @TheBigtom123456 Make sure you are using 64bit and not 32bit. That sounds like a memory allocation problem found in most 32-bit versions of Windows. Good luck!

  • HM. I edit videos. Does that make me a "Power user"?

  • @philosophermike I'd say so.

  • well i have an old computer and it runs vista with 1gb ram and it runs great. there is a way to increase ram. look it up. I added 3 more gigs

  • XP ran fine on 256mb haha :P anyways win 7 needs one gig to even alow you to install but it runs better than vista :S

    lol i remember when i had 16mb ram and win 95 and a 233mhz pentium cpu... that thing loaded things fast... but well the new features are nice in windows and i am fine with it that it takes up more ram..

  • My school pc (one of em) has 248mb of ram. It has windows xp and it has office 2003. Epic fail.

  • vista eats up RAM thats all buy windows 7

  • I have Vista with 4 GB (3.5 GB usable) and it works fine.

  • i have 1,5 gb ram and vista works pretty good :D(awsome)
