    Testing full 4GB RAM

    Using BurnInTest v7.0 64-bit, is it possible to test all of the 4GB RAM?

    The log typically displays something like:

    Total Physical Memory: 3895MB
    Available Physical Memory: 3457MB

    I assume it is only testing the available physical memory. I need to test all of the 4GB RAM.

    I am currently testing under PE 3.0, 64-bit; I expect I would have the same result under other Windows 64-bit OS's.

    Some RAM is taken by the operating system. This is the case for Linux, DOS, WinPE, or any other O/S you boot from.

    Some RAM is also often used by other components. The video card being the main one.
