I'm on a gigabyte x58 UD5 with windows 7 64bit. after the fresh install i could see all 6GB in task manager but just recently i noticed only 4GB is showing up while 2GB is shown as 'reserved for hardware'.

I have turned off hypermemory in atitraytools as i have a HD 3650 with hypermemory. but its still showing 2GB reserved for hardware.

Is there anyway to fix this without a complete reinstall?

im definitely on 64bit OS, i dont have memory mapping in my motherboard bios(F5) and i have turned off hypermemory as i mentioned before.
