I'm not sure how this works with AMD64, but with 32 bit systems the default kernel has a maximum amount of RAM it can recognize and use. When I increased the RAM on my thinkpad to 3GB, I had to switch to the 686 kernel to get it all recognized. I'm not sure how to investigate, but perhaps you need a different kernel or a kernel module? Just guessing.
