I have just noticed that when anything displays the amount of RAM that I have it always gets it wrong. It keeps saying that I only have 1011MB instead of 1024MB can someone please tell me why?

Re: RAM
Does it share with video?Dell SC1425<br />1 Xeon 3GHZ CPU<br />1GB ECC-DDR2 RAM<br />Onboard ATI Radeon 7000-M w/ 16MB Fixed/unshared RAM<br />Dual 82541Gl Gigabit Nic's<br />DVD-ROM/CD-RW Combo<br />73GB SCSI Drive.<br />Never got Compiz to run properly on the ATI, but that is secondary of course. -
Re: RAM
Perhaps it is reserved for something.
On a similar note, some BIOSes can cache themselves in RAM for quick access. Perhaps that is what yours is doing.For external use only.Comment

Re: RAM
My guess would still be Shared with Video. My laptop here does and it always shows less than what I have for the system because the rest is shared off to Video. ACER 3618, Intel 900 series GMA.Comment

Re: RAM
It does not share with my video because I an using a Nvidia Geforce 6400 that does not have turbo cache but as for the BIOS I will have to look into itComment
