Physical Memory

I an running 4 gigs of ram on Vista Home Basic 32 bit. I have an nvidia i680 motherbored. (If that doesnt sound right i can check again. im writeing this on my friends cpu while mine does a Memory Diagnostic.) I have 2 7950 gx2 they have a gig of memory each on them. Currently not running on SLI because Age of Conan messes up when i use them SLI. Everyone is pretty sure AoC has a memory leak in it somewhere which is causeing alot of people to crash due to out of memory errors. But i was wondering why my 4 gigs of ram displayed on the bios start up as being 4 gigs and under my systems tool as being 4 gigs. But when i open my task manager performance tab my physical memory is only 2 gigs.

I believe you need 64bit OS to use 4 gigs.

Yeah but it doesn't use at least 3.5 gigs of it which is how much 32 bit will use of the 4 gigs.
