Hello,


We have a Proliant 8500 running Windows 2000 Advanced Server. The server had
3GB of memory, and we added an additional 2GB of memory for a total of 5GB.
The problem is the OS only recognizes 3.4GB of memory, even though the BIOS
and POST report 5GB of memory. How do I get Windows 2000 to recognize all the
physical memory?

Thanks,
JDB
 
Hi JBD,

See if the following article allows you to see the rest of the physical
memory.

283037 Large memory support is available in Windows 2000 and Windows Server
2003
