okay, so i have both XP pro x32 and x64. I decided to switch to x64 so i could max my 4gb of ram. (i'm waiting for windows 7 to get a bit better... chill on the flaming for this decision please).

I have read and been told that x64 bit OS's will accept 4gb+ of ram. while x32 only will accept a max of 3.25.

Why would XP Pro x64 only be recognizing 3.25gb of ram just like Xp Pro x32 does?

Some motherboards require you to enable memory mapping in the BIOS before it will recognise all the memory installed.
