Hardware Upgrade: Why Windows Can’t See All Your RAM By Chris Hoffman Installing RAM should be as simple as placing the new RAM into the slots and powering on your computer. However, a number of issues – both hardware and software related – can cause problems when installing new RAM. Windows should be able to see and use most of the RAM you’ve installed. If Windows can’t see all of the RAM you’ve installed, there’s a problem. You’re Using 32-bit Windows 32-bit versions of Windows have low memory limits. The maximum amount of RAM supported by a 32-bit version of Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP is 4 GB. if you have more than 4 GB of memory, you’ll need a 64-bit version of Windows to take advantage of it.

How To Fix Windows 8.1

How To Fix Windows 8.1 Issue Where It Doesn’t Recognize All Installed RAM I just recently upgraded from a 27″ iMac to a new custom build PC of which I installed Windows 8.1. The build process was smoother than expected although I ran into a frustrating issue where my motherboard was recognizing all four RAM sticks which totaled 32GB of RAM yet Windows 8.1 would only recognize 24GB of RAM when under the “System” window. After fiddling around through the settings, I finally was able to pinpoint the cause of the issue which was directly related to a hidden Windows 8.1 setting. While it may not fix this RAM issue for everyone, here is what I did to solve my issue: Step #1 Drag your mouse over the Start Menu at the bottom left and right-click on the Windows icon then click on “Run”. Step #2 When the Run window appears, type in “msconfig” then click okay. Step #3 Under the “System Configuration Window” click on the “Boot” Tab then click the “Advanced Optio...

Several months ago, one of my friends told me that his Windows operating system cannot boot after he accidentally marked drive C active, and I finally helped him fix the issue after a series of researches. Several days ago, when I was browsing a famous Windows related forum, the same question was found, and till now it hasn't been resolved. Therefore, I plan to write this post, hoping it useful and helpful for users who are troubled by the same issue. My post contains 3 parts, including which partition should be set active, why this partition should be set active, and how to set the correct partition active. Next, let's see these parts one by one. Which Partition Should Be Set Active Before answering this question, we need to know something about system partition and boot partition, because both of them play significant roles in booting Windows. As loading architecture of Windows OS changed a lot since Windows Vista, here we just take Windows Vista for exampl...

Change a GUID Partition Table Disk into a Master Boot Record Disk Applies To: Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 Master boot record (MBR) disks use the standard BIOS partition table. GUID partition table (GPT) disks use unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI). MBR disks do not support more than four partitions on each disk. The MBR partition method is not recommended for disks larger than 2 terabytes. You can change a disk from GPT to MBR partition style as long as the disk is empty and contains no volumes. Backup Operators or Administrator is the minimum membership required. Note Before you convert disks, close any programs that are running on those disks. Changing a GUID partition table disk into a master boot record disk Using the Windows interface Using a ...

Restore a machine with a UEFI BIOS and GPT system partition

In the Recovery Environment :  UEFI machines vary in their ability to support booting off  of a legacy ( MBR format)  CD or USB flash drive.  Motherboard manufacturers do not always maintain the same naming conventions or options for their UEFI capable motherboards. There may need to be changes made in the machine's UEFI BIOS.   Some of the newer BIOS's will support booting off a CD without BIOS changes.   In the UEFI, the BIOS option needs to be set to Legacy or compatibility mode . (The wording and options can be different with each manufacturer).   After the restore completes, change the mode back.  Once booted into the Recovery Environment,  convert the system disk to a GPT partition.  Right click on the disk and select "Convert to GPT disk" If the  "Convert to MBR disk" is the only option, convert the disk to MBR, then again, back to GPT.  This ensures that the disk is correctly configured to GPT ...

Explanation of System RAM

Explanation of System RAM Everybody with a computer uses RAM Memory. It is an essential component to a working computer. You might be wondering what sort of RAM is in your motherboard, video card, or what you need to buy, or what you need to look out for. Be warned, for not all RAM is created equal. Why does a computer need RAM? What does it do? Before RAM had such wide-spread usage, two of the most important parts of a computer were the microprocessor (CPU) and storage (Hard Disk, or in many cases, just a Floppy Drive). However, microprocessors were much faster, and could not reasonably operate near their full potential because they had to 'wait' for the downright sluggish storage drive to send it data. Random Access Memory (RAM) acts ...
