Tal, You might have a look at Win32::SystemInfo module. It claims to do what you need.
If the above doesn't work try to use use Win32::TieRegistry and then extract the registry key which contains the information about the amount of installed memory. I assume it is either under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Hardware or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System but you'll have to look for it as I don't have such a deep knowledge of the Windows registry.
