    that is exactly right you should install a 64bit os to get the whole 4GB ram capacity.

    um.. 32bit OS should show full 4GB RAM but it cannot use more than that. To use more than 4GB RAM you need a 64 bit OS (on a 64 bit platform).

    In this case, its more than likely that the missing 512mb is shared for video memory.
