Use ReadByte() instead:
Size := IOHandler.ReadByte;
> IOHandler.ReadBytes(Buf, Size, False);
Use ReadStream() instead:
fMem.Clear;
IOHandler.ReadStream(fMem, Size, False);

You are trying to write your data to the memory address where the stream
object itself resides, not to the memory address where the stream stores its
data buffer. You are not writing the data into the stream at all. To do
that, you would have to set the stream's Size property (to preallocate the
buffer to the proper size), and then write the data into the stream's Memory
property, ie:
fMem.Size := Size;
BytesToRaw(Buf, fMem.Memory, Size);

You aren't using them properly.
