Yeh, part of your memory is going towards graphics.

ohhhh.... that's probably because i started playing warrock.... this should stop when i install a video card with more memory right?

basicly it will stop with anyvideo card. Just try and get a video card with 64mb+

ray_miecz · 01-27-2006, 04:29 AM

yea, should make u alot happier. but, i was running a dell 2400 with 256 mb of ram and integrated gfx that thing was a bigger pile then i thought.

dfi was nice enough to force me to buy a video card, because they knew integrated graphics just wouldnt cut it.

...thanks, dfi!
