I am running a core 2 duo E6600 (a 64bit cpu) with a Intel P35
motherboard and 4gb of memory. My os is vista 64bit ultimate. I
installed 64bit so i can use my full 4gb but i only get 3,6gb. I
already tried to set my HPET (memory remapping ?) to 64bit and also
completely off but it doesnt help Anyone has a solution ?
