This depends on which memory you're talking of - physical memory or
the memory available to programs. If it's the memory available to
programs, you need to use the _go32_dpmi_get_free_memory_information.

If you're talking of physical memory, you need to try INT 15H/E820,
INT 15H/E801, INT 15H/88H, in *that order*. If you require a sample
program, please mail me in private.
