Ram upgrade issues

[Raknor]

Hey guys,


i just installed 2 extra gigs of corsair value select ram in my pc. After boting up vista(32bit) only recognizes 3.5 gig of it. Any ideas what is wrong? These are 4 identical sticks of pc 5300 667mhz corsair value select ram.


any thoughts would be appreciated,
thanks

Vista sees 3.5gb but uses 4gb of ram
also read this:
The system memory that is reported in the System Information dialog box in Windows Vista is less than you expect if 4 GB of RAM is installed
