I ran lshw>hardware and it says that I have unclaimed RAM. How do I recover it?
Someone covered this before, remember? If you are running Windows with a 32bit OS,
then you can only access about 3.5 GB of RAM. Otherwise, I wouldn't worry too much.
If you have a lot of RAM or much more than you are using, then you will have unused
RAM of course.
