    Is it true that the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 2400 video card has only 64MB dedicated memory, coz on the notebook check site it says:max memory 256MB http://www.notebookcheck.net/ATI-Mobility-Radeon-HD-2400.3773.0.html
    and on the comet website it says 64MB: http://www.comet.co.uk/cometbrowse/product.do?sku=425222&tab=specification#spec, whilst on the ciao website it says 64MB dedicated ram and 895 hyper memory: http://www.ciao.co.uk/Toshiba_Satellite_A200_1VP_Core_2_Duo_T5250_1_5_GHz_15_4_TFT__6822168(scroll down)

    The first page I am not sure, I know certain video cards can have a different amount of memory, such as the 8600M GS can have either 256 or 512. The second shows the laptop with only 64MB of dedicated memory but doesn't go into the amount of shared memory it can have. And the third shows both dedicated and shared. The only thing about shared video memory is that it is no where near as good as dedicated, most of the time they put those figures to show larger numbers, basically to trick you into thinking it's a better card. I am not sure with the Call of Duty 1 but I think you would have no problem, if I remember correctly a 64 MB graphics card was recommended.
