I recently purchased 2gb of memory for my mbp for a total of 4 gb. I downloaded Rember and performed a mem test, and it says:
Total built-in memory: 3 GB
This is the total amount of physical memory that the computer has installed. If this figure is not showing the correct amount of memory there may be a problem with one or more installed DIMMS.
Available memory: 1962 MB
Available memory is the amount of physical memory that is currently not in use by any other processes. All available memory will be used for testing when the "All" option is selected. To increase the amount of available memory, you can restart your computer before testing. If you are familiar with the command line (CLI), you can run memtest (the core of Rember) in single-user mode. See Rember help, or http://www.memtestosx.org for more information.
Requested amount: All MB
The total amount of memory requested for testing by the Rember application. Not all requested memory can be allocated for testing. See information on "Available memory" for more information.
Memory allocated for testing: 1962 MB
This is the total amount of memory that memtest was able to allocate for testing. See "Available memory" section for more information.
Why am I not showing 4gb? Am I doing something wrong?
