The build in graphics gpu's usually share memory with your RAM. This would reduce the available RAM.

So it will show the minimum, but take more as it needs it? (Gaming, etc)

It shows the memory built into the video card (64Mb), and if it needs more it uses system memory up to (256Mb).

In the bios you can change the amount of ram the GPU uses in most cases...
You say the bios offers nothing but in my bios i must press ctrl+f1 to get the hidden advanced options up, and that is one of them...?? Just a thought,
