Re: Vista Ultimate & Memory questions

Its strange I know.
P5B has latest BIOS.
Vista Ultimate with sp1

If I go into system from ctrl pnl it now shows 4gb regardless of remap enabled or disabled. All 3rd party programs show 4gb regardless.

BIOS shows 3008mb with remap disabled and windows actually utilizes 3006mb according to task manager.

BIOS shows 4096mb with remap enabled and windows actually utilizes 2048mb according to task manager.

Will get some screenies up in about half hour.

Your results are strange as Memory remapping should be enabled to use all the ram so I am sat here shrugging
Yup I know 64bit should be my way to go. Might see how the pennies are at the weekend.
