    Mine looks quite similar to yours. Not sharing as much as the system memory, though. How much ram do you have? I have 2gb...

    256mb dedicated
    271mb shared memory
    527mb total memory

    ya i have 2 gigs of ram, funny thing is, that I didnt think the Go 7600 could share system memory. Granted this only happened with the latest System Bios, pretty sure when I first got the laptop it was only using 256 of its own, and not sharing anything

    it depends on which power setting you are using, put it on high performence, start up a game and look at system resources, you will see the shared memory being used then
