Protip: Games don't make your computer "lag". Lag is referred to having difficulties in an online game, where the game will basically freak out in an abnormal way.

I get annoyed when my friend says "Man, my PC lagging" when his computer just can't run a ****ing offline game.

To lazy to look for a "coughcoughaquired* version of windows XP 64bit.

Oh well just a gig of ram. My computer runs incredibly fast enough for me as it is.

I don't have any money, I don't really want to pirate it (can't this get you viruses?) and my dad refuses to pay any money for XP, or more ram.

I love my computer.
And for whatever reason it will only recognize 3 out of the 4 gigs of RAM I put in.

for some reason mine will only recognise 4 of the 8 gigs of RAM I put in. :/

You gota learn how and where to put it. There are different types of RAM slots, and it might happen that your mobo can only recognise 4. I have 4 slots for my RAM, but I don't think 2 of them will recognise more than a certain amount or something like that.

It's a bit out of my area here, as I've never dealt with RAM before.

Nope, it because of the accumulator in your CPU. It can only assign 2^12 memory locations and hence will only use 4Gb of RAM, it simply can't recognise anymore.

I knew that...

Then why did you say something almost completely different?
