hey all. I’ve tried different ram, a different windows version, I’ve messed around in bios and updated it as well. How can i get my pc to register the rest of my ram??
msconfig has a maximum memory option. Worth checking that to make sure it’s not set to 8gb.
Could also be that you’ve installed the sticks in a weird configuration. Often if you have 4 slots the board actually wants you to populate slots 2 and 4 if you’re only using 2 sticks. Details are usually printed on the board.
Or could be reserve for the iGPU, have a look in the bios.
