Re: directX only recognise 3326mb

And you are showing that you are using the x64 version of Vista? It sounds
like it is the 32 bit limit that is causing it. It sounds about right with
it showing that much RAM.

Check the system info page (winkey + pause/break). If it shows "64-bit
operating system" next to System then you are probably right. If it does
not then you are probably seeing the correct amount available to Windows
regardless of the 4GB of ram shown by the BIOS during POST and showing on
the system info page.
