A Windows computer will recognize more ram if you throw it out your window and buy a mac instead (really it's a good choice) many computers will actually recognize the new ram instantly and if it hasn't you can try reinstalling it. If that doesn't work you can hunt through settings to look for something to do with RAM and it might have a setting you can change.

Computer wont recognize more ram?

If you've installed more than 4 gigabytes of memory, you're going to have to upgrade to the 64-bit version of Windows XP to recognize it all. A 32-bit operating system is only able to recognize about 3.4 gigabytes of RAM. The computer, of course, will recognize that memory; and there are products on the market that will let you use the extra memory as a RAM drive. I'm still using the 32-bit version of XP, until I can afford Windows 7, and I have my swap file on the 4.5 GB RAM drive. I notice a substantial increase in speed with programs that do a lot of swapping to the hard drive.
