no, no. its just that a bit of ur memory is being used (shared) by the onboard graphics chip. its perfectly alright. don't worry.

hmm.....

according to manufacturers 1mb =1000kb

not the actual 024 kb ,so that might be the reason for the missing MB's.

Dont Worry

Hmm

Dont Worrry

Ur RAM is shared with Motherboard Graphics Card.

U Have Onboard Graphics Card. So its sharing with it.

Dont think So, In Today's world 128 is enough

Upgrade to 512

Enjoy

where is this forum heading :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
ever heard of an USB RAM? he's rerring to his usb pen-drive u drilled donkeys(i wonder if anyone got it ).
btw, i think the soln lies in what nikhilesh said. if u hv been using this pc for some time & r using ur usb port for this first time, check for newer motherboard drivers from ur manufacturer's website. the soln may lie there.

As far as your problem is concerned ... I think it is normal...
You don't always get what is labelled...
My 10GB harddisk isn't exactly 10GB it is around 9.8GB
