Dang yo, I’m playing on a piece of shite made from 3 Frankenstein computers..  rocking the sweet 19” widescreen from 2011.  OG shit.  Don’t duck wit it. Though, I did just score a sweet nvidea 560gtx on CL for $25! 

What techies know how I get win7 64 to notice all my ram with fucking up my bios?  The base pc is an older dell i7 intel board.  I got 16g, but only uses 8 of 16 in msconfig.  So it sees all of it but only uses half.  Sorry for the hi Jack.

Check the connectors.  Sorry for the canned response,  but my experience is that it really is the most likely cause.

I have not read the thread, or even who posted it, but I will add that Axer was truly one sweaty keyboard warrior. Hail to the once and future idiot.

Are you using 1 stick or 2?

If 2 sticks, take out 1 and see how much its showing. If it says 4g then its a system recognition thing, if still 8gb then 1 of your sticks is bad.

Also check the original specs - its possible the board literally does not support sticks over 4gb.

Did you try taking a few sticks out?

If it can read all 4 gigs of 1 stick it should be able to do 16. That is a fuckin weird problem.

What version of windows are you on? As in what exact version: Home, pro, edu, etc, 32, 64?

Yeah Win 7 Home Basic can only access 8 gb.  Need to upgrade OS to either a better 7, 8 10 or Linux.

Microsoft has a surprisingly predictable track record where every other OS release is garbage. 3.11? Amazing. 95? Crap. 98? Amazing! ME? You get the idea. 8 is definitely hot garbage. & is good and 10 is like the second coming of XP.

If you can make due with a slightly reduced feature-set, you might try out Windows 10 Ameliorated:

https://archive.org/details/windows-10-ameliorated-1903

Its a heavily stripped-down windows 10 build designed for stability and functionality. No spyware, no automatic updates, edge browser, etc. Its worth taking a look, if you don't need things like cortona.

Now of course it goes without saying that the ISO file on that link is strictly for evaluation purposes only and you should purchase a legitimate user license if you intend to make it your main OS. Obviously here on the vault forum we would never recommend software piracy.

They all make me want to vomit.  Picking windows versions is like picking what flavor of shit you want to eat. 

Yes windows has more games, and it is the only valid reason to touch the damn thing.

My formerly windows 8 pc got a free upgrade to 8.1 and eventually to windows 10. I don't know if they are still offering that.

You can still upgrade Windows 7 and 8/8.1 to Windows 10 for free if you know how.

Search around on zdnet.com for an article on how to do it. It still works as I just upgraded a Windows 7 PC for free on Monday.

You run that version?  Does it actually run well with the mods?  It might make a nice VM image.

Now you post that shite as I’m half way through my installation.  C’mon man I thoughts weez wuz frens?! 

To make up for your heinous crime equivalent to telling me about how all the raid items I have been farming over 59 raids finally dropped on the 60th one that I happened to miss...yeah that guy, I now need information about how I can install this “missed raid item” version of windows 10  over my existing windows 10 so I can get rid of all the shit that I don’t need. 

Uhhgh

I haven't actually tried it myself, but I'm told its quite a bit more stable than regular windows 10. It has however missing a few core features. If you punch "windows 10 ameliorated edition" into youtube you can find some reviews of it. It would probably be fantastic for a VM image, especially if you just need a native win10 environment for some program to run in while you linux it up.

Yeah unfortunately all that shit has to be removed from the ISO image file BEFORE you install it. Sorry bro. I posted it like 4 days ago. Where you been at?

I just downloaded it and it is either I am having a common issue where win 7 to 10 upgrade makes the Ethernet adapter turn on and off orrrrrr, it could be that I need to go pay my bill.  I’ll let you know what happens after I pay the bill.  (Secret Answer: blame the computer not my lack of responsibility of course.)

Yes. Absolutely get an activation. No one on the Vault would ever recommend or advise software piracy. WINK. WINK.

If youn want to be legal you can buy a win 8 key for sub 10 dollars upgrade it to 10 then have a clean legal 10 activation to clean install.

How are you still able to upgrade the 8 key? I was under the impression the stopped doing that. I don't actually have a fucking clue, I'm pretty sure I've never actually owned a legit copy of windows that didn't come pre-loaded.

Ahem. Of course. As far as I know. All my windows licenses are legit.

Yup.

Yup.

If you have 7 or 8 Legal clean install,  you can still upgrade for free.  You just have to make a windows boot usb and boot off of that and select upgrade rather than doing a clean install.  After the upgrade it then registers a copy of windows 10 to your system.  You can clean install and sign in with your MS ID and the system will activate and you have a legal copy of 10 still.
