Only 3.6gb of 64gb RAM recognized by 64bit squeeze



Hello,
 
Before anybody starts arguing that I don't have 64-bit, this is uname -r and uname -m:
root@n03:~# uname -r
2.6.32-3-amd64
root@n03:~# uname -m
x86_64
 
As the subject suggest I have a box that does not utilize the available RAM installed. I noticed that only 3.6gb RAM was recognized when I got segmentation faults during a simulation.
The funny thing is that when I remove dims so that only 48gb RAM is available then it works fine, I did a 'lshw -C memory' and it shows all the dims at the correct spot (the output is attached). BIOS and memtest show and successfully test all 64gb.

Hope somebody can help me fix this, I cannot think of anything that could cause this
 
Best regards,
