I have exactly the same problem.

The system(Win7x64) sees 8gb but uses a maximum of 4gb.

On win 10 everything is fine.

I need exactly win7.

Installed on different platforms 2011,1151, AM3+(tried different updates).

The result is the same-more than 4gb is not used.

maybe upgrading the RAM capacity will help with the problems, I often advocate Cramming it with RAM
