Added two 1gig (of correct) ram sticks. Bios sees ~2500mb ram. Windows
My Computer_properties only shows ~500mb ram. System can use up to
4gigs ram.
Dell Dimension 4600 pent4 2.6ghz. One and a half year old. What is
the fix???
Dell says re-install. I am sure there must be a set up fix, or
something.
 
What does the bios show?

He already told you it shows 2500mb

If you got the RAM from Dell and it doesn't work, they now have to deal with
the problem. And a reinstall is not the answer. Press onward and demand to
speak to a persons superior.
