I recently installed two gigs of ram to the ram I already have which gives me
four gigs. When booting up the system I go into to setup and can see that I
have four gigs of ram. After booting into Windows I go to control panel/
system and the information is saying that I have 2.50 gigs. I installed a
memory manager and it also says that I have 2.50 gigs. What do I need to do
to have all my memory recognized or is windows limited to two gigs on
physical ram?

Have a look in msconfig, BOOT.INI tab, Advanced options button, for max
mem restriction having been set.

The msconfig option did not help at all, even inside of the msconfig boot.ini
it only appears to be 2048 on ram when it should be showing 4096.
