I just upgraded RAM on a 32bit system but it only shows 3.2 GB available, I was expecting atleast 3.5 GBs, is this normal? and does that mean that 0.8 GB is not used at all or its used but I just cant see it?

Is there any fix or a trick to make it use all 4 GBs?

It's normal ... the OS essentially 'reserves' that address space.

The fix for it is to install a 64 bit OS.
