Unless you are running Vista 64-bit, or XP 64-bit (which cannot be bought retail), your operating system is limiting your RAM.

32-bit OSes can only access 4GB of memory at a time. However, that 4GB includes BIOS (motherboard and add-in cards), video RAM, sound RAM, and a few other things, leaving you with 3-3.5GB for system RAM.

Windows 7 is in open beta right now, so you can try it before you buy it.

Make sure you have/get a 64-bit processor (CPU), before putting extra RAM in your computer, or it won't make any difference.

Yup. Vista 64bit. Already covered my friend. Handy tip for those who don't know though!
