    Not sure if anyone can help...

    I recently got a dv2050us to play with (reinstall the OS to) so went fine, installed XP Pro SP2, installed the various drivers from the HP site (no problems) and then came to looking at it, well Windows is reporting the maching as having 256MB or ram, not the 2GB of Ram it actually has???

    Anyone seen this before or have any ideas? The only thing I can think of would be the Video Drivers for the Intel 945GM Express are somehow sucking most of the RAM away, but I've never heard of anything like this before?
