Default ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 card - Call Of Duty

Bit Long Winded but here goes...
Just bought Call Of Duty 2 for my new PC and graphics are jurky when played in single and multiplayer modes. Spec for my computer are as follows:
Processor: AMD Athlon™ 64 1791MHz
Display: Card ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Series
Memory: 512MB
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP
Free Disk Space: 82.33GB
Display Card Memory: 64MB
Display Driver Version: 6.14.10.6587
DirectX Version: 9.0c
Optical Drive: CD/DVD
Sound Card Realtek: AC97 Audio

Taken using a scan from http://gameadvisor.futuremark.com/ga.../my_system.jsp

Dont know a lot about computers but my mate says that my ATI grpahics card should be 256MB not 64MB as stated after the scan. COD will only run smoothly when i turn of all the effects and make the graphics look pretty crappy, indicating that the graphics card may be the problem.
Are we right in thinking that an ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Series should be 256MB?
Anybody got any suggestions of what might be wrong or is my graphics card broken?
Thanks for any help
Steve

no. The radeon xpress 200 has only 64mb on board graphics, and shares the rest from your ram. You would need a better graphics card to be able to play COD with good FPS. Also video memory isnt that important. Its not like the more video memory you have the better it will work. I had a 9550 with 256mb onboard memory, and i got a 9700PRO with 128mb on board memory, and the performance with the 9700PRO is a lot better.
