The system dmem available() command appears not to work on either of my Windows 7 machines (One is Win 7 premium 64bit, the other is Win 7 ultimate 32bit)



I am using DBP v7.5 with full administrator privileges, and using the code above, I get a "Program has stopped responding" error every time I run it on either machine.

Might be worse than that. I get the following on my 32 bit XP laptop:



I'll test my 64 bit Vista machine later.

Thanks Green Gandalf for checking that.

I used to be able to check using the registry on XP machines, and only use the system dmem available() command on Vista machines (Registry method is highly preferable as it Doesn't take 4 mins to do... lol), but I never worked out how to do it using the registry on newer OS's.
