Windows 2003 Ent. Edition cant recognize 8GB RAM jcagots 12/17/2008 10:01:02 AM i upgraded our server (Dell PE6600) from 4 GB to 8GB. The bios and the dell open manager tells that the server has 8GB, but the windows properties says it has 4GB only. I wanted to setup at least 3 (2x2GB RAM, 1x1GB RAM) Virtual Machines, that will serves as POC or demo environment, but cant setup coz Windows see's 4GB of mem only. Already contacted Dell still no answer. Hope you can help. TIA
