I know that 32-bit operating systems can only detect up to 4GB and tend to show a little less because some gets reserved for other things, but I installed 32-bit XP on a system with 8GB of RAM, and the General tab of System Properties says I only have 1.91GB, and I see something similar in Task Manager. Running CPU-Z shows I have 4 sticks of 2GB plugged into each slot, and I see the same when I boot up. Why is only one stick out of four being detected, is there something I can do to fix this short of opening up the PC and taking sticks out? The inside of my case is kind of annoying to gain access to.
