Showing 6 GB Of RAM But Only 4 GB Usable?
Sep 21, 2015
In System Information it shows that I have 64-bit Operating System. Why is it showing only 4 GB of RAM is usable, out of 6 GB available? And how to enable it to fully use the whole 8 GB? Because I had in stalled 8 GB of RAM to this machine.
However, when I went to check by myself, by right-clicking on 'This Computer' icon and selecting Properties. Under system, it says that I have x64 based processor, and 64-bit OS installed. Here, you can also see that I have highlighted that there's 6 GB of RAM available, but only 4 GB usable.
And this here is a snipped screenshot from 'System Information, well, it also says here that I have 64-bit version of the OS.

I just noticed this. I never had this problem under Windows 8.x. Checked my BIOS and everything looked good. IGPU is turned off. Setting the memory in msconfig Boot|Advanced doesn't work.

I've just installed my windows 10 and since it was running slow on a 2gb ram, I decided to buy a 4gb stick on my 32bit system. Long story short, it only shows 2.2gb usable. 768mb(or something close to that figure) is reserved for the videocard but I think I still should have 1gb more. Ive tried the unchecking the maximum memory and didn't work. I've tried all possible solutions that I could find on the net yet no progress. Except for one, which is updating the BIOS, of which I am particularly bad at trying to figure out how. Anyway I'll just attach some of my computer information ....

Just installed my new RAM and took a look at system to see that I only have 4 GB usable out of the 12 installed. I've done everything I thought of and nothing has worked. Why this could be?

Did a clean install of Windows 10 in 64 Bit and now on my properties it only says 4GB of Ram are usable instead of the full 8GB. (Pic Attached)
I had never seen this before and I did have Win10 installed after upgrading from 8. Decided to do a clean install because it had been a while.

Updated to the latest 10 update last night and Edge is almost unuseable. Takes about 5-10 minutes for the computer (esp Edge) to unfreeze and start playing nice.

my cd drive icon was showing and working then stopped showing up. I did as much research as I could and purchased AVG driver updater and it worked for a few days and won't work again.

I want to reserve my copy of windows 10, but the icon for the Get Windows 10 App is not showing. I have tried most of the "fixes" from the Microsoft Forums but none of them have worked.

Everytime I try to return to my desktop, it just shows my apps. It doesn't show my desktop at all, besides my desktop background, and how to revert these changes, or how I even got it like this, but I can't view my desktop.
They aren't my running apps either, just general stuff.. Calendar, mail, photos, etc.

I just purchased a Samsung 850 Evo SSD, and after connecting it up, my new SSD as well as my older WD Green HDD are not showing up anywhere in Windows. I can't seem to find them in Device Manager or Disk Management. They both do, however, pop up in the BIOS. The motherboard is an Asrock b85m pro4 if that matters.. I'm not really sure how to troubleshoot this issue. I have an 840 Evo as my boot driving which is starting Windows up just fine.

I have one or two Folders that I just cannot seem to get to appear on my Desktop. They show in the Files listing just fine, the way they should. Nothing that I can think of is anything special about them.
Also, in their Path, the last item is Desktop. If I create a shortcut, and put the shortcut on the Desktop, clicking on it works just fine. So, I imagine that they certainly should ?

I have recently upgraded to Windows 10 on my main work PC and for the desktop background I have a slideshow and I have the taskbar showing. I have an HTPC in the lounge which is running on Windows 8.1 (not upgrading due to losing WMC ) and for this PC I have a single background for the desktop and the taskbar set to auto-hide.
When I change the settings on one PC it automatically changes the settings on the other PC - the background changes and the taskbar changes to/from auto-hide etc... Not sure if anything else is changing as well!
The two PC's are not in a homegroup and are not on a network - they're connected to the same router (BT Home Hub), but don't show up in each others network within Windows.
As I've been writing, the only thing that comes to mind that is "connecting" the two PC's is the fact that I am logged in to each PC using the same Microsoft account. However, the pictures I am using on each computer are not on my OneDrive, so how is it changing things and more importantly how can I stop it from happening, short of signing in with different accounts - which I wouldn't have thought I would have to do?

As you can see from the above desktop icons are not showing.
This happened after resizing desktop icons and then rebooting.

Just purchased a used Samsung Chronos 7 laptop and updated the OS from 8 to 10. Now the SSD disk doesn't show up anywhere.
The C drive is 1TB and the SSD would be 8GB.

Not sure if you will understand my problem but I tried to search it everywhere but was not able to actually find the correct searching criteria so I was not able to fix my problem. My laptop has win 10 and it was always in English. All my windows used to have the menus (file, edit, view...etc.) on the left and the (X) to close the window on the right. for all my windows like control panel and my computer. But now they are reversed (X) on the left and menus are on the right.

I have upgraded my Windows 7 Pro to a VM in Mac Pro using Parellels, it worked fine and due to some reason I need to shut down the VM and created a new one with Windows 7 Pro. Now I have updated all the installers and there is no update left. But still I cannot see the Windows 10 Upgrade App in the task bar.
As I am unable to set the upgrade option, what is the alternate to install Windows 10 to my VM?
