Presumably you mean that you are using a 64-bit version of Windows
7. This is not sufficient to give you access to the full 8 GB of RAM.
My recollection is that Stata 10 for Windows was strictly a 32-bit
program, so that it could not access anything beyond the 32-bit
memory space. If there was a 64-bit version of Stata 10 you would
have to use that rather than the 32-bit variant to get Stata to
allocate more memory.
Actually, you are doing rather better than was usually the case for
Stata 10 with a 32-bit operating system. This is probably because
the operating system is loading system programs, etc in segments
beyond the 32-bit boundary.

Dear Statalisters,
I have a 64-bit machine using windows 7 with 8GB of ram. I am using
Stata 10. The system only allows me to allocate 1.4GB of RAM to Stata.
Is there a way to get around this limitation?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Erasmo
