I am a novice ? This is my first computer build.
My grandson built the same system with no issues.
Motherboard: ASUS M5A97 AM3+
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series
Start Computer Properties
Windows Edition: Windows 7 Professional
Processor: AMD Phenom (tm) II X6 10-45ST Processor 2.7 GHz
Installed memory (RAM): 8.00 GB (3.96 GB usable)
System type: 64-bit Operating system
I found a site with someone having the same issue with almost the same build:
http://www.overclock.net/t/1123792/h...ly-3-96-usable
I tried switching the RAM slots from black to red and setting max RAM to 8192 mb.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Is it a hardware or software issue?
