| System shows less memory than it really has Reply Contact Hi! I recently bought an Athlon X2 3800+ with the M2N-MX ASUS mobo; and bought two identical DDR2 PC5200 making a total of 1GB(2x512). But the BIOS says: Usable memory:856MB!? I think this is because my motherboard has an onboard GeForce6100 that is sharing system ram... So is there a way to completely disable the onboard video and get 1GB Usable memory?
