Hello Tony,
I think the problem is that Dell only offers a maximum of 4gb, but the machine has 2 slots and can accommodate 2 x 4mb. I was unable to download the specs from Dell, but all memory upgrade outfits say that the N5050 can handle 8gb, for instance here:
http://www.dellmemoryram.com/dell-laptop-ram/DellInspiron15N5050.html
That does not explain why Ken cannot see the other 4gb, of course. It may not be seated correctly or there may be a setting in bios, or the module is defective.
Cheers,
Bruce
