Weil ein 32bit System (2^32 Bytes= 4096MB bzw. das "neue" MiB) maximal 4GB ansprechen kann, aber was hat man davon wenn der komplette Adressraum für die 4GB Speicher draufgeht? Dann bleibt nichts mehr für die restlichen Komponenten, deshalb werden die zuerst versorgt und der "Rest" bleibt dann für den Ram, je nach Mainboard, Graka, etc. sind das dann meistens 3,0-3,5GB.
Zeig mir mal bitte wie Linux diese "Adressraumsperre" umgehen kann
[e] Link gelesen. Das ist genau das was ich oben beschrieben hab!
Im SP1 wird unter System der komplette Speicher 4GB angezeigt, aber trotzdem können die nicht genutzt werden!
Da stehen doch auch die Voraussetzungen um 4GB komplett zu nutzen:
WORKAROUND
For Windows Vista to use all 4 GB of memory on a computer that has 4 GB of memory installed, the computer must meet the following requirements:
• The chipset must support at least 8 GB of address space. Chipsets that have this capability include the following:
• Intel 975X
• Intel P965
• Intel 955X on Socket 775
• Chipsets that support AMD processors that use socket F, socket 940, socket 939, or socket AM2. These chipsets include any AMD socket and CPU combination in which the memory controller resides in the CPU.
• The CPU must support the x64 instruction set. The AMD64 CPU and the Intel EM64T CPU support this instruction set.
• The BIOS must support the memory remapping feature. The memory remapping feature allows for the segment of system memory that was previously overwritten by the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) configuration space to be remapped above the 4 GB address line. This feature must be enabled in the BIOS configuration utility on the computer. View your computer product documentation for instructions that explain how to enable this feature. Many consumer-oriented computers may not support the memory remapping feature. No standard terminology is used in documentation or in BIOS configuration utilities for this feature. Therefore, you may have to read the descriptions of the various BIOS configuration settings that are available to determine whether any of the settings enable the memory remapping feature.

An x64 (64-bit) version of Windows Vista must be used.
