Thanks Technical n00b!!

I made a second thread since I thought this post was kinda old!!!

I understand...so...it is 'confirmed' that that memory is not allocated 'beforehand', just used when needed, right?

AS u said, I would never use any app that woulds demand more than the built in 128MB. Can I be 100% sure that the 768MB allocated 4 video won't be used at all? (like in the "OLD DAYS", where the user put XMB in the BIOS, and the user was sure that was the memory 'wasted' on video)

Danny.

Let me edit that :P.

Well, you see it right now, only using when needed but you will never get there. The onboard x3100 uses 8MB and a bit more when XP has started but still less then 64MB.
