Oh, the motherboard's power-on self-test will display it. What else do you need to get...

Is this the programming section? Of course it's for programming, heh.

Both assembly and C are okay. The interrupts I found can only check up to 64MB at most. Only the XMS Driver's Query Any Free Extended Memory (Function 88h) seems to be able to retrieve memory larger than 64MB, but it only returns free XMS, and in actual use it always doesn't work (for a machine with 1G memory, the EDX still only returns more than 60MB, don't know why)

I remember that DOS can only manage up to 64M?

DOS 7.1's built-in HIMEM.SYS supports the XMS 3.0 specification and can manage up to 4GB.

Another thing: int 15h is a BIOS interrupt, not a DOS one, heh
