Hey everyone. I'm running Windows 7 64bit and it's reporting that only 8GB of my actual 12GB of RAM installed is usable.
Apparently the missing 4GB has gone to my graphics card, a 6850, which under the "Performance Information and Tools", which says the following:
I'm wondering how to turn this off. You can see my motherboard model above. When I first built my computer I had a 5770, and it had the same problem. I need my full 12GB. On my motherboard it says 'FF' on the little screen, meaning that the CPU is Fully Functional.
Could this be a motherboard issue? I've always updated to the latest drivers, and have tried each RAM stick by themselves.
I've been doing some heavy searching and can't seem to find any answers. Could anyone please be of assistance?
