I have 4GB RAM installed and BIOS recognize 4GB RAM.
Linux kernel (Ubuntu-7.04, 32bit-PAE and 64bit, openSUSE-10.2 32bit-PAE and 64bit) tells me: only 3GB of RAM are installed.

Any other user with a 4GB Thinkpad? tytso?

What can i do? Please help!

Please post your bootup dmesg output. If your chipset doesn't support memory remapping above 4GB or the BIOS doesn't enable it, you won't be able to use all 4GB of memory.
