@raketenDK i have windows 7 home premium (64-bit) installed ..
P-41 gigabyte mother board
n9400gt (1gb) MSI graphic card
@wrektime1 you are probebly using a 32 bit operating system and a 32 bit OS can only handle 4gb inkl. all other memory in your system such as grafics card’s memory etc.
hey i have this problem i have a 950mb of ram which is 1gb but when i start up my computer it show 64mb only…..but int control panel its 950mb i need help please.
i had 2gb ram(ddr2 800) installed and added another 2gb ram(ddr2 800) on another slot of my Gigabyte(g41) mobo .. and it said “4.00 GB (3.2 GB usable)”
my mobo supports dual channel memory .. pls help.
1. Make sure your memory stick are compatible (like both Dimms) by checking online sources.
2. I had a complete crash until I figured out you must put the 1 gb stick in slot 0 and the 512 mb(old memory already in machine) in slot 1. I was able to mix sizes and manufacturers by putting the larger memory in the first available slot on the motherboard. Good luck!
i opened my pc amd all my data was gone
you motherbaord don,t support 2gb ram only 1gb that the prob
I had 2 gb of RAM and I bought a 2 gb DDR2 stick. I placed it into my computer, once I started my computer it said I only have 1 gig!!! Some one help
its probabbly not compateable with your computer, go to fryes take yur old ram and show them yurs and tell themn u want better onces of thae type u have theyll help u out alot….
it’s because that isnt the type of memory chip that your card needs..
my computer has a 1g of ram but when i did a scan norton 360 an it said it only has 512mb of ram ? but when i push the start key + pause/brack to bring the system info it says it has 1g of ram???
are you serious?
wat is ur ram type that u buyed e.g: ddr2 sdram ddr ddr3.
what is ur make and model of ur computer e.g toshiba l300 and model num: l30-10x psl33e
That is because the RAM that you bought is not the same type as the RAM you already have. There are SDRAM (quite old and has two notches), after that goes DDR, DDR 2, DDR 3 (probably you have one of them and you bought another), each of them working on higher frequency than the previous.
.. lol.. the size..
the size
lol hahaahahah
There are many different types of RAM.. suc as:
ddr., ddr2., ddr3.,…..
I recently bought a 2gb ram chip and I go to install it, and it doesnt fit in the slot!! I held both of them side by side and I could see the little notch in the middlle wasnt exactly in the same spot….. why is that?
DD3 IS A NEW AND FASTER TECHNOLOGY
IT MIGHT MAX OUT AT 1.5GB
what is the difference between ddr3 and ddr2?
NEVER EVER use different types of ram. Ether stick with 512′s or 1gb’s.
