That's because you are running a 32 bit version of Windows

Re: ram not recognized
When you install Windows you get to choose between 32 bit and 64 bit.
You cannot change this - all you can do is wipe the disk drive and reinstall Windows from scratch

Re: ram not recognized
Of course, but the Intel Pentium G850 shown in Sal's screenshot is a 64-bit CPU, so that is not the problem.
Best wishes,
