Hi! I just installed Windows 10 and I immediately noticed there's a little problem... Out of my 16 GB of RAM, only 1 is usable, and my disk also seems to be throttled, sometimes reaching latency times around 4000 ms (maybe it's due to the RAM?) I've installed the chipset, let the updates run, and also took a quick look at msconfig, but there's nothing to do :/ I'll let you see for yourself.. https://gyazo.com/6363d32c7a89f83a27e0f4776a715604 (memory)
hard drive https://gyazo.com/dc48883b1963c5719d164ff158b01e86 (it wasn't in load) And right next to it, you have the CPU that’s just sitting there lol https://gyazo.com/1debc443ce00abd943dbb6e6b188e3a6 what to do?
Anyway, thanks in advance to anyone who can enlighten me on all this... see you later!

Hi,

For the memory issue, it seems like Windows is having a little crisis... :-)

However, regarding the disk, I don't see anything "abnormal" at first glance.

For the installation of Windows 10, did you do it "fresh" or via an upgrade from an already installed Windows?

What we can do to check for starters:
  • Open "msconfig" -> Windows + R and type "msconfig"
  • Go to the "Startup" tab
  • Click on "Advanced options"
  • Ensure that "Maximum memory" is unchecked.
  • If it is checked, uncheck it, apply, confirm and restart to see.


Best regards,

Hmm yeah, maximum memory is unchecked and there's a 0 inside... And I did a fresh installation :)
Anyway, thanks for your help :D

Okok, first case of this kind on W10 for me.

The problem has been present since the installation: we agree? :-)

What motherboard do you have? Have you checked if there is an option like "remap memory" or something similar enabled in the BIOS? :-)
