These disclaimers are at the bottom of the report:
c. Memory slot contents may not add up to Installed Memory if some memory is
not recognized by Windows.
d. Memory slot contents is reported by the motherboard BIOS. Contact system
vendor if slot contents are wrong.

I don't know of something that tells the type and speed of the RAM, but
Belarc Advisor will tell you how much is in each slot.

This is from my system:

2048 Megabytes Installed Memory

Slot 'DIMM0' has 512 MB
Slot 'DIMM1' has 512 MB
Slot 'DIMM2' has 512 MB
Slot 'DIMM3' has 512 MB

Is there a way to tell what kind of RAM is installed in a box without
opening it? I'd like to know the type of RAM, the size of the modules, the
speed, etc., and determine all this while the box is running. Even better,
although I don't expect it, would be to know how many slots are available.
I'll tear the box open if need be, I guess, but it's a hassle I'd rather
avoid.

TIA,
Arthur
