Hi,
I recently upgraded the memory in my computer from 8GB to 16GB, but only 8GB are being recognized, meaning I have effectively paid for nothing!
They are 4GB sticks (KHX1600C9D3B1/4G) x 4 1600MHz DDR3
I am on Windows 7 Ultimate, and my resource monitor shows 8201MB Hardware Reserved.

I have reseated them over and over and also booted with each stick individually to confirm that they all work. If I boot with 3 sticks I just get 12GB installed (7.99GB usable)
Any help and advice is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
Jordan
