rcl Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Hi, love the program! I'm having a small issue with Speccy showing the wrong amount of RAM, but it is reported correctly in BIOS. What does Speccy query to get the RAM size? Is it CIM_ComputerSystem.TotalPhysicalMemory or Win32_PhysicalMemory/CIM_PhysicalMemory? Is it looking somewhere else?

Alan_B Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 Are you allowing for the 7% difference between BINARY Gbyte and DECIMAL Gbyte ? see http://www.codinghorror.com/blog/2007/09/gigabyte-decimal-vs-binary.html and for gigabyte (GB) vs gibibyte (GiB) definitions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte Otherwise you need to give actual numbers and your operating system.

rcl Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 Thanks for the reply. Its Windows 7 and in Speccy its showing 3.00GB instead of 4.00GB. Where is Speccy reading the RAM info from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_B Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 You cannot use the last 1 GB out of 4 GB on x32 http://www.vladan.fr/windows-7-x32-edition-does-not-use-4-gigs-of-ram-did-you-know/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcl Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 Yes, sorry I forgot to mention it is x64 Windows 7. It should show 4.00GB but it doesn't. Speccy queries WMI for this info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
