O.S. Detecting More Memory than the BIOS
When I restarted my system yesterday the BIOS was detecting something in the area of 3258 Mb instead of 4096 of RAM and Vista was seeing 4 gigs. Should I reinstall the memory? What if I was using Readyboost through a Flash Drive? Would this cause a conflict by somehow causing the BIOS to remove that amount of RAM used in the readyboost configuration and not show it in the total amount of RAM available? I know it sounds messed up so I'll use Memtest and see what's up but any other suggestions would help. The memory is great so I can't see why it would do that...perhaps a BIOS flash is in order.
