Have you tried updating your BIOS on your motherboard ?

EDIT: check this forum out ! http://forums.amd.com/lofiversion/index.php/t52417.html It seems you need XP64 too use 4GB RAM

you dont update your BIOS, unless it's extremely needed.

i agree keeping computer uptodate on bios and even windows updates will help with a lot of issues its always good to check and see whats up to date and not try going to radarsync.com they will scan for free and tell you what updates you are missing but it costs to download the updates but u can find them for free after it scans usually
