    IS that a single chip or two chips of 256 MB each, instead of system info, how much does BIOS show? It could be possible that one of the chips is bad ...

    The available physical memory refers to memory not currently in use, not the maximum amount of memory you have. It would appear that you are using approximately 315MB on your computer right now.

    i think you dont have the graphic card and computer will spare some RAM for that. also Windows will occupied some RAM since the computer start so that's about right amount of RAM that has left.
