Windows system shows wrong amount of RAM?
5,915
Go into the BIOS and save the changes - only then will Windows report the correct amount of RAM.
P.S. this is one of the most frequently asked questions over at eeeuser.com :)

I just got an ASUS Eee PC 1005HA and immediately upgraded it to 2 GB of RAM. However, when I open up the Windows System Dialog, it says there is only .99 GB of RAM. CPU-Z sees the whole 2 GB though. What's going on here?
The BIOS also reports the correct amount of memory in the system.

Luke Hopkins almost 15 yearsyou don't have to patch the BIOS! the problem is well known with all Eee PC: when you upgrade the system memory, you must go into the BIOS and save the changes, regardless the BIOS version.
