Does anyone know if the amount of installed memory can be found by checking a key in the registry on NT4 Server?

Unless I'm mistaken, it probably is displayed dynamically in Properties of My Computer the same as in Win9x. At least I've never found a fixed entry in the Registry in all the versions of Windows.

Good judgement comes from experience, and experience comes from bad judgement

the fall-back way of checking such things i find is to export reg then actually make the change (i.e. physically change amount of ram), then export reg again and compare the two. the difference should indicate if / where in registry the info is held.
although its sometimes an overkill at least you have the comfort of knowing the full picture - e.g. sometimes data is in more than one place in registry.
