I have 2 servers both running Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition.
1 of the servers is an HP with 4GB Physical RAM and in My Computer, it shows
3.66GB of physical RAM.
The other server is an IBM 226 with the same O/S and 4.5GB of RAM and it
only shows 3.25GB of Physical RAM.
Is there a fix for this that anyone know about??

Thanks in advance

Use the /PAE switch in boot.ini. This may help.

I forgot to mention that these are both Terminal Servers and it is
recommended not to use the /pae switch.
I would just like Windows to show the full amount of RAM.
