Why does XP only recognize 2.5 GB of RAM for me?

nope, that didn't work as it was always on enable if no peg.

@ssj12, why would I be mistaken on how much RAM my Video Card has? Newegg would have to be mistaken with me as well as all of the hardware analysis programs I have but yeah, it's probably my motherboard.

 

Dont worry about it, just read my post edit.

 

Could you give a link for that?

I just searched google for XP's max ram and XP 32 ram limit. I took the most stated number of what random tech forums were saying. There was even some 3GBs thrown out on some sites which I know is wrong. I also remember learning somewhere that 3.5 was the visible limit. It will read up to 4GB without showing it after that it jsut wont read any.
