    SBS 2008 does NOT recognize all memory.

    Hello guys,
    I'm new in this forum. I was interested of professional and well skilled answers in problem solving discussions.
    I'll be glad if I can help with anything, but now I have strange problem with SBS 2008.



    I've got brand new server HP ML150G6 E5504 4x2GB 250GB and installed SBS 2008 everything is fine except that recognize only 4GB out of 8GB. I didn't find any bios option to solve the problem. In System Information I found that it sees all 8GB as installed memory but in Physical memory section says 4GB. When open Task manager there are also 4GB.
    Strange problem but I believe that we can resolve it.

    I had this same issue on a New Dell 410 series server, ordered 8GB and
    SBS Task Manager showed 4GB, but the My Computer status showed 8GB.

    Turns out the Dell shipped the dang thing in MEMORY MIRROR mode, where
    4GB is used to mirror the other 4GB - nice idea, but stupid as heck
    since I didn't order it that way and they never shipped them that way
    before.
