8.00 GB Ram (3.96 Usable)

So I have 8gb ram but only 3.96 usable I have no idea why, my pc is also norwegian and I dont know how to change it just so you know.

Are you absolutely sure you have the 64-bit version of Windows? 3.96GB is where 32-bit tops out.

If you have 64 bit Windows installed, check in your BIOS for an option called Memory Remap or something like that (varies from motherboard to motherboard), if you find it, enable it.

If you need more specific instructions, please post what motherboard model you have.

Right click on my computer and select properties, what does it say for system type?
