If you want to recover the missing > 256MB, go look in your BIOS for an option about memory hole remapping. No need, i know this stuff. Problem is that asus p5p800-vm bios does not have such option (no memory remapping support in chipset) , so, and simply assumed that in PAE mode this simply does not matter and it will give me whole 4GB. Isn't it so? Is it true for 64bit mode (amd64)? -- Regards, Artem
