that is normal. integrated video always takes close to 512MB of ram to run. some motherboards/computers have options in BIOS to increase or decrease the amount of memory it takes. although its not taking up much ram right now so i don't believe you would be able to lower the amount anymore than what its at now

"it is at 128mb right now,if i reduce it from regedit(there is 1 thing i know and it works),will it help?
and i have nothing in bios for some reason"

Then it's fixed at 128MB for the Intel GPU - - as it would need to be since reducing it further would result in Windows being unable to display anything when it starts owing to insufficient memory allocation for the default APU graphics chip.

The amount of system RAM allocated to the Intel graphics is not the cause of your RAM problem, that's the wrong way to go about fixing it.

I would be tempted to test each RAM stick, you may have a bad one.
