    Hey, so the FL90 i just got has 2x2gig of memory but it only recognizes 3 gigs.

    -system resources (such as PCI and PCI Express) require physical memory address locations that reduce available memory addresses above 3 GB. This may result in less than 4 GB of memory being available to the operating system and applications when populating 2 x 2GB.

    What does that mean? Is there anyway to have it recognize it?

    Thanks

    You need a 64-bit OS to recognize the 4GB of ram.
