Prompt the user to launch the System Information tool
and enter the number they see in to a text edit box !
(Or take the user out of the loop and automate the
process with window messages.)

Or...reverse-engineer the System Information tool !
(dumpbin or whatever to get the API calls).  Figure out
how it gets the proper answer !

Or...just round the result of GlobalMemoryStatus() to the
nearest plausible memory size value! (e.g., 757 MB becomes
768 MB, and 1022 MB becomes 1024 MB)

Okay, I'm bad !  Sorry for the humor !
