mushkin memory 127mb???

[iwang5]

Hi
I put together my mushkin rev2 133mhz 128mb memory with my CUSL2 mobo and p3 700. In window system menu it shows only 127mb memory!!! Did my mushkin memory broke? It suppose to be 128mb but it is now showing 127mb in device manager. It is showing 128mb in the BIOS though, so could you guys let me know what's up with my memory.

THanks

It's showing up as 127 mb ram because 1 mb is shared video for the onboard video card. I dont know if you can disable it tho. But don't worry, your memory isn't broke.

Yeah I got this friend that bought a PIII 667 with 64 mb of ram. When he checks in windows it only says 56 mb of ram because of the 8mb of shared video.

that would piss me off.... but as they say, it's shared
