Vista not reporting the correct amount in Sys Properties

Posted: 01-20-2009, 05:36 AM
I have a HP Pavilion a1110n desktip pc. The specs are: MSI K8MM3-V
motherboard, AMD Sempron 3400+ (2.0 GHz), 1.5 gb of ram, 128 mb NVIDIA
GeForce 5200 agp 8x video card, onboard sound, lan, agare modem, standard
mouse/keyboard, 17" monitor, epson perfection 3490 series, and canon ip1800
usb printer. The problem is that the system properties is showing 12 gb of
memory installed, when the task manager, and the bios show 1.5 gb (1536 mb)
installed. I am wondering if I need to switch out the memory brand and/or
check drivers on my system. I have ran the Memory Diagnostics, looked at the
task manager in the performance tab, resource monitor, and the bios itself.
All these areas show the correct amount of memory. Can you help me figure
this out??
