Default Laptop Ram Issues

Hello, earlier today I was looking at my system information and noticed that i have 1024MB of RAM but only 517MB of RAM is available. This really confused me and I cannot find anything online that can help me fix this.
My laptop is a HP ZV6000
AMD ATHLON 3600
ATI MOBILITY RADION Xpress w/ 128MB Memory.

Thank you...

Where are you seeing this amount of RAM available? The best place to see how much windows can use is by looking at the general tab of system properties
