8800GT SLI lowered my RAM?

Hey everyone. Just have a quick question.

Yesterday i got and installed a second 8800gt in my rig to run SLI. Took me a long time to get it working right.
So, i get it up and running, and the windows sidebar that i have says my RAM dropped from 3gigs to 2.3MB. Was that suposed to happen or did i do something wrong?
If i did, how can i fix it.

Im running
vista prem 32 bit
ASUS M3N72-D MoBo
AMD Phenom X4 II 940 Black edition
4gigs Geil 1066mhz ram (only running at 800mhz for some reason)

32 Bit OS's can only recognize 4GB of RAM... and that's total (System RAM + Graphics Card RAM). Adding another 8800GT added more total RAM, thus decreasing the amount system RAM your OS can recognize.
