Not sure what you mean.
There is no command to check RAM.
You may use PRINT PEEK 16389 which gives 68 for 1k and 128 for 16k RAM. This is the dirty variant. ;)

Code: Select all

PRINT PEEK 16389*256+PEEK 16388
PRINT PEEK 16389*256+PEEK 16388-16384
This should give RAMTOP address (first line) and RAM installed/available (second line).
Not sure if brackets are needed, dont think so.

This RAMTOP code also goes with Lambda 8300.
