For 512MB RAM you'd use 0x20000000, which is the hex value for 512*1024*1024. One way to get that number is by using Calculator on Windows (somewhere in Accessories): in the View menu, choose Scientific. Make sure it's set to 'Dec'. Enter the amount of ram you want in MB, and multiply by 1048576 (1024*1024), then switch to Hex mode and voila. Don't forget the leading '0x'. Possibly you could enter the value in decimals as well if you omit the '0x', but I'm not sure.
