32-bit OS.

 

Edit: no idea how that happened if it's a new laptop.

It looks like that's a 32 bit OS on there, so you're limited straight away to just less than 4GB of ram.

You have a 32-bit OS. At least I could figure that out from the Spanish. Get a 64-bit OS.

I would complain at Lenovo over which noob decided it was a good idea to ship a new laptop with 8GB of ram with a 32bit OS.
