Hi. I'm new here. If I'm not making my request in an appropriate manner please let me know. Thanks.
I have an old HP computer which I converted to a home server and installed 2 x 2GB ram. But it will only show that I have 3.25GB usable. HP spec'd my machine to have max memory of 2GB. I was hoping that I could get a modded BIOS whereby I could use the whole 4GB.
Here is the motherboard spec:

Here is the link to the latest BIOS from HP:

Here is what the spec of my machine looks now:

And lastly, here is a pic of my BIOS which shows that Bank 2 only has 1GB ram when in fact it is a 2GB stick.

I've tried to insert the images from imageshack but I'm unable to do so. So I've inserted the links instead. Hope this is acceptable.
Thank you very much.
