@N2 Gaming Just to be clear : Under normal circumstances you never tick maximum memory box under msconfig.
Yes, overclocking RAM may make it unstable, and limiting it then can help with stability (not really, you just tell OS to not use some of unstable part of memory), but that's not what you want in this case.
CPU-z probably detects memory by SPD info, regardless of how much of actual capacity can be used by system.
That's why you get 4GB under Memory tab in CPU-z and only 2GB in System info.
Again, it's not OS issue as BIOS itself only sees ~2GB, so it doesn't matter what OS you put in (or how many times reinstall Windows/Linux).
OS is ultimately limited by how much memory is seen by BIOS, and Your BIOS only detects ~2GB of RAM.
Not english language, but at least numbers/settings should be recognisable :
