Hi,

My system physical ram is 4gb and have also added 4gb kingston flash drive as ready boost. My Os is Vista ultimate X 32 Service Pack 1.

In my system details it is shown as still 4 gb and not 8 gb even the cpu meter gadget is showing ram as using 37% which used to be the same without the 4gb flash drive ram - The 4 gb flash drive is formatted using NTFS. However when the properties of the flash drive is checked it is showing 3.66gb used and 62.5mb as free space.

Is it possible for Vista to show 8gb ram and not 4gb

Thanks

Zaki
