Why my Lenovo T410 with 32bit Windows 7 uses only 2.92 gb RAM out of 6.00 gb?

This is what I see at Control Panel\System and Security\System:

Installed memory (RAM): 6.00 GB (2.92 GB usable)

I would expect a 32bit Windows to use 4 gb

Hi
yes 32 bit will see a maximum of 4 GB but this also includes video ram ,so if your graphics uses 1 GB of RAM this leaves 3 GB for system RAM.

Well actually a windows 7 32 bit will only show 3 gb of ram usable, but 64 bit will support upto 128 gb. So, the best solution is upgrade to a 64 bit windows 7.
