I installed Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit on an old Medion M3 Director 5000 desktop. Windows recognizes the memory as "4.13 GB (2 GB Usable)." This is very strange because only 2 GB is installed in the system, however Windows thinks there is more. It's not causing any problems, but I wanted to know why it says this.

Full system specifications:
Medion M3 Director 5000
Windows 7 Professional 32-Bit
Intel Pentium 4 HT @ 3.0 GHz
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 128 MB
2 GB DDR RAM @ 166 MHz
250 GB HDD @ 5400 RPM

I checked the page file and sure enough, it was set to ~2 GB. (Why didn't I think of that before?)
Thanks for the quick answer!
