I have two 64 MB of ram physically installed on my
computer but the system requirements only recognize 64 MB
instead of 128 MB. Can anyone help?
 
What does the BIOS say when you start up your computer?
Which system requirements box are you looking at?
 
Check bios POST and see what ram size is being reported. If it is half of what is installed it could be that your RAM is double sided and your motherboard only supports single sided RAM modules for 64 MB. Check documentation/manuals that came with your motherboard or PC for acceptable RAM combinations that may be installed. It would also be nice if you listed more about what hardware you are running so that we can better help you with your problem.
 
i will check tonight
