Dear All

I've a new Dell Inspiton 1564 laptop with 1GB graphics card and 4GB DDR3
RAM, FC 12 64bit installed on it , but in system information tab it
shows 3.7GB usable RAM. My Question is "what about the remaining RAM ??"
is it shared with graphics card ? then what is the meaning of dedicated
RAM of my graphics card ( if graphics card shares my installed ram module )

any idea ??



Regards
