What is graphic memory??!Go to control panel>system>general tab, to view ram n stuff, in system there is a tab with a button that has a list of hardware (if thats what ur looking for). Or you can just rightclick something somewhere like a ahrd drive and get properties to c how big it is.

Right click on the desktop and hit properties. Then click on the tab, settings. After it says 'Display:', it should have a long line with a five to six digit number in it. Those numbers are your card's bites(i think).

Right click on a blank section of your screen, select properties--->go to settings---->go to advanced---->go to adapter and it will tell you. You probably have shared system/graphics memory. Then go to system properties and look to see how much memory your system has and add up to 128/256/512/1024 (normal memory sizes) and that should give you an idea as to graphics memory.

The memory onboard video use is, is drawn form the computers RAM. If you have 256mb of RAM installed but it only shows 224mb of RAM you have 32mb allocated to video. This can be adjusted in most cases in the BIOS.There are two ways.First Start> Run> msinfo32> componants> Display.The other way is to run Everest Home*. While all 4 versions are available I recommend version 1.51. It is the last full version. 2.01 and 2.20 are scaled back.This program will tell you almost anything about you computer.
