Hello All Said laptop is a bit slow, so I have upgrade the memory to 2x 2GB. What puzzles me, is that when I look in the system specifications, only about 750 MB is used. I cannot find anything relating to that in the BIOS settings Anyone any idea on what this could be, and how to make the whole memory available? /Nico

I don't know what you mean by slow - compared to what, under what conditions and whether the machine has always been that slow. Your laptop is not built for speed, and RAM probably won't change that. http://www.notebookcheck.net/Fujitsu-Siemens-Esprimo-Mobile-V5535.9149.0.html

The reason I bought more memory, was because the system is constantly swapping pages in and out, so I hoped more memory would help. However, there is more to it. I replaced the original memory, and I still have only 750 MB.... /Nico

From what I know/heard, 32-bit should be able to utilize about 3.25Gb! http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/ff700229.aspx
