    Dear All,

    My X61 come with 1GB Ram in the box, I recently brought a 2GB Kingston RAM and fix in. On the Bios, I can see 3GB detected. But when go to the System, (right click on the My Computer, select properties) shows Memory(RAM)2047MB.

    What is the problem cause?

    From a Vista website:

    He had 1GB and installed 2GB after too. Are there any settings in BIOS you can change?
