And 64 MB is going to my Onboard video.

Can anyone tell me what is the max win xp pro 32 Bit can see before say my onboard video taks 64 MB out of it??

The 64mb is taken out as soon as the computer is booted into windows. It's possible to go into the bios and reduce the amount of video memory, you'll have to go in there and see if the setting can be changed.

XP 32 bit can see up to 4GB, but it will subtract some for hardware memory addresses. Then your onboard video memory.

With onboard video you should see about 2.8-3.2GB. About the same as everyone else.
