Depending on your mobo and other devices installed. you will show different amounts of memory installed ( check Welcome Center ) and depends if your mobo uses PAE or not. So basically those that use 3GB in Vista 32 Bit have a much more stable environment than those that use 4GB.
During tests almost 99% of unstable problems were fixed by removing 1 stick of memory in 4GB systems. You should read your mobo manual on which types of memory to use is you want 3 GB. With all the tests ran which show 32bit systems run at 99.+ % compared to 3GB systems. it simply is not worth the MONEY to buy 3GB. Some gamers are having major problems also with the new GAMES which use 4GB Memory when the system only tells the game is has from 2.1 to 3.5 GB Memory... when 32bit system can not read 4GB.
