I have 4 gigs of corsair XMS2 2x1 GB PC2-6400 DDR2-800 RAM.
My Mobo is a ASUS P5K deluxe LGA775 DDR2 1333FSB
My monitors are 2 Samsung 24" wide screens at full resolution.
My video card is a nvidia Quadro 5300
My operating system is Vista home premium 64 bit
My processor is a Intel core 2 quad Q6600 Quad core LGA774 1066FSB

My problem is that when i am on my desktop and have nothing running my vista side meter thing says that i am using half my RAM and 30% if my processor how could that be possible inst that like 2 gigs?
