    Default Video Card Help

    i have a intergrated video card that's only using 121 mg of memory but i want it to use more. I was told it is possible to dedicate more memory to the video card but, no knows how to on a vista, from what they've told me.

    Does anyone have any knowledge of this? would greatly appreciate it.

    here's my dxdiag just in case. Yes i know this is the freemmo section, but it is the most active of all the sections and i am kinda anxious to figure this out(and i need this help so i can play a freemmo with a good resolution).

    I think you would be better off with integrated than a $20 junk card. Actually, you should be able to play a lot of games with integrated.

    I've been using integrated, and have been able to play all games so far. I can even run AoC with it.

    Anyway, if you want a graphics card, try www.newegg.com

    Really wtf is your card then I heard they are bad cause they use to much of your pc resources. I have an intel card I'll change it sooner or later. But his pc is not that bad almost 2gb of ram just a lil touch up and he can run anything
