    I'm curious on the HP DV6500T adapter properties that shows the video card memory size and so forth. I know it has a 128MB nVidia 8400M GS dedicated GPU, but when I check in the Adapter properties, it shows 512MB instead of 128MB? Does the rest gets shared by the system RAM?

    It's very possible that the rest is shared RAM. Up to 700+ Mbs can be shared with 2 GB of system RAM.
