RAM problem after removing the battery

Hello everyone. Please tell me what could be the problem. Today I disassembled the computer, cleaned it and inadvertently pulled out the battery, after turning on the computer does not see all 8 gigs of RAM. That is, 8 gigs are installed, in the properties it sees 6 gigs and uses only 4 gigs. Will reinstalling Windows help? or how you can restore it. Thank you for your help !!!! Win 8.1 64, motherboard gigabytes ga-990fxa-ud3 latest BIOS version

Well he pulled it out and pulled it out. In theory, the BIOS settings should have been thrown off to default. And the slats of the RAM were removed from the mother?

Yes, but put it in the same place and pulled it out

How many planks are there? The simplest thing that comes to mind is to remove and insert the dies again, maybe the contact is bad.

I don’t know, of course, how you can accidentally get a battery, but oh well. Try to reset the BIOS "in a normal way", that is, disconnect the PC completely (turn off the power supply and unplug it from the network, it is also advised to press the power button to completely discharge the standby power on the power supply), find on the mat. reset jumper (commonly referred to as JP1 or Clear_CMOS). Move it from 1-2 to 2-3 for a few minutes. Then rearrange it back.

If there is no such jumper, then remove the battery and close the contacts with a screwdriver.

Plug in a new battery. It costs little.

I had a similar case, my memory also lied, it turned out that the contacts were stuck while my mother was cleaning, try to clean the bar contacts (degrease) and / or change the socket

The bars are normal, one inserted each one sees 4 gig, but as soon as they are inserted together, he sees only 6 gig.
Will reinstalling Windows help?

if the BIOS on the start page sees 8 gigs, then reinstalling Windows will help.

Reinstalling Windows did not help (

I tried through msconfig to remove the checkbox where the Maximum memory is, the same result

Well, you have 2 gigabytes reserved by hardware, most likely for an integrated video card, but where did the 2 gigabytes go, now I'll see if Google can throw it up.
UPD BIOS how much RAM does it see?

I'm not good at BIOS, but if this line is responsible for this, then Extended Memory 4078M

there is no integrated video card there! It is necessary to look for a problem in Bios, tk. his settings went. Sometimes one of my cores turns off the BIOS.
