    Presumably you're talking about the RAM, and presumably you're running Windows?

    If it's Windows 7, then go to Control Panel, then System & Security. Under the "System" heading, click "View Amount Of RAM & Processor Speed". Then see what figure is given next to "Installed Memory (RAM)".

    Let us know if it's not Windows 7.
  • Assuming you are using windows -
    open the control panel
    click on the "system" icon

    that should give you details of the memory and the processor.
