Beyond 8 GB memory

We upgraded our server to Windows 2003 Ent edition and added extra 8 GB memory to the machine, operating system sees all 16 GB also ent mgr properties shows all 16 GB memory, I assigned 14 GB to SQL server but perf monitor (total server memory) only shows 7GB memory, any reason for this?Did you restart your SQL Service?
