My ASUS P4R800-VM takes 4GB's

LNS-Front242-T3 · Apr 24, 2013

This mobo says it can take up to 4GB's of memory, well I have it filled with 4GB's of matching Crucial PC-2700. And it shows only 3GB's of memory & not the full 4GB's, what have I done wrong(My OS is Windows XP Home 32bit)? Thanks to all who answer!!

Windows 32 bit can read slightly less than 4 gigs, it should read around 3.5 gigs. Are you using 2 x 2 gig, 1 x 4 gig, or 4 X 1 gigs?

Hello - I have all 4 slots filled with matching pairs of Crucial CT12864Z335 1GB each, 1 set is I16TY and in 1st & 3rd slots - the others are K16TKY and in 2nd & 4th slots. Thanks for your response!!

If it is only reading 3.0 gigs of ram then I would ensure that all of the ram is properly seated, and then I would test the system with 1 gig at a time, if it doesn't boot, then you've found your bad stick.

I will do that right now, and I'll be back in a few + after dinner. Thanks!!
