your motherboard doesn't support 2gb, but your brother's motherboard does. Did you upgrade the memory yourself? If so, you might want to check the motherboard specs to see the maximum it will support (which is apparantly 1 gb)

This is a little confusing: If you're having a problem with a 2GB memory card showing full capacity, then waht does a 4 Gb usb flash drive have to do with that ? If the problem is with the 4 Gb usb flash drive, then it's possible that Vista is using some of the capacity for ready boost. But Vista doesn't use memory cards for ready boost as far as I know.

It's good that you fixed the problem, but just out of curiousity, what USB settings in the Bios did you change ?
