t60p memory limitation? it's a miracle!
don't ask me how it happened, but I restored my t60p back to factory and after the ths sp1 update I rebooted to find all 4 GBs of ram read on my systems window.

Re: t60p memory limitation? it's a miracle!
Vista (and possibly even XP with SP3) can correctly display the total amount of memory installed. However, the remaining RAM will still be unusable. Check to see how much free/used/total RAM is displayed in the Task/Process Manager.

Re: t60p memory limitation? it's a miracle!
True, true. The BIOS summary page will show 4.0GB of RAM, too. However, it's the same story, nothing (currently known) will let you access memory over 3.0GB on a T60/R60/Z61x machine. Of course with 4GB of RAM (matched sized memory sticks), you do get the slight performance boost from dual channel memory mode.

T60/61 memory limitatins sticky needs some update. Every once in a while there are "memory miracles" with these machines...
