You don't free up RAM, you free up resources.
Your RAM is 384 MB (I assume a 256, 128 and a 64 MB set of sticks). You could yank that 64 and replce it with a 128 and have 512 of RAM.
You are looking at the General tab under Properies, right? Check Performance tab...that shows how much available RAM you have in percentage...if you have less than 50%, you need to use MSCONFIG and stop the load of of stuff you don;t need runing.
