finding total RAM


Recommended Posts

I first want to say sorry for my last post.  I was a little paniced about loosing my files didn't want to redo the last few programs I made.  I know better to say about decompiling EXEs.

I am now trying to recode some stuff and so I am trying to figure out how to find the RAM in a PC or Laptop.  The built in gives me what is available but that is not what the BIOS is telling me.  Also I have been trying to use the Scriptomatic stuff, but I can't seem to find what I am looking for.

Example.  I have a Dell gx755 that the BIOS says it has 4 one gig RAM sticks.  How do I get Autoit to tell me, you have 4 gigs of RAM?

Have you tried MemGetStats?

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Will this help?

Local $FindMem = MsgBox(64, "Memory is", _GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory() & " Ram")

Func _GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory() ; author = guinness
Local $aRet = DllCall("Kernel32.dll", "int", "GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory", "uint64*", "")
If @error Then Return SetError(1, 0, 0)
Return $aRet[1] / 1024
EndFunc   ;==>_GetPhysicallyInstalledSystemMemory

:bye: MSDN is your friend. The AU3 documentation (help file) is the other friend. Google for that function and MSDN pages will be the top results.

Thanks for all the suggestions on where to go.

I can make it work in windows 7 but it doesn't work in XP.  Yes, we still have to make it work in XP.  Is there a different dll call that I can use?
