    Your operating system must support only 3gb - windows XP or vista 32 bit?

    Windows Vista 32-bit only supports a max of 3.4gb or something. You need to get 64-bit in order to go higher.

    vista 32bit home premium i think

    and that's why it only shows 3gigs, there is a hack for 32bit to make it support 4 gigs but its iffy

    Also running a 32x OS with 4 gigs of ram and reading 3 gigs. Not that it's really an excessively annoying issue....
