I upgraded my Vista computer from 2GB to 4GB of RAM.
However, upon boot up, it shows only 3.072 GB of memory.
Yet Vista says I have 4.00 GB of memory.
In addition, the computer doesn't seem "twice as fast" at all (Eclipse still takes 20 seconds to open, Vista Explorer lags and spins the hour glass just as often, etc.).
(1) Is there something I have to do to make my computer faster after it has this extra memory, and (2) is it alright that the boot up screen only seems to recognize 3 GB?
