PowerEdge 2900
sorry to barge in on such an old post if its the wrong area please let me know. i currently have a dell poweredge 2900. im new to a server/workstation. i have windows 10 32bit home installed on it currently. i had thought with the 2 cpu's it would handle my gaming easier but its proving to be ineffective when i try to game.
processor intel xeon e5405 @2.00GHz x2
installed ram is 12 gb (2.74GB usable)
32 bit operating system x64 based processor
now is there a way to make my computer use all 12 gb of ram this seems improper. also i have no clue how to find specific versions of firmware and such drivers so my second question is there a way to do a system update that would check all of that?

I split your post off of that thread, as it didn't have anything to do with the subject of the other thread.
All kinds of problems with your setup:
There really isn't much you can do to salvage this as a real gaming machine, but you could start with a 64-bit operating system and a graphics card. There are no supported graphics cards, so it will require some trial and error to find one that will work - without it, gaming will be very poor. Trust me, you would be much better off with a desktop with any generation i5 processor at 2.5GHz or better, with 8-16GB RAM, and an $80 video card.
