    Does anyone know how to decrease the amount of system memory that is allocated to the video card?

    I am not a gamer and that memory would serve me better as physical memory than shared memory for the video card.

    GET OUT!!!! ohh the humanity. might want to update your signature btw. I honestly don't know the answer to that question but I have heard that the sonys 8400 Nvidia is crippled already if you took away whatever memory it had left it'd be like taking away an old mans wheelchair and never giving it back, he'd be stuffed then wouldn't he.
