    Is there any program that can show how much Video Memory that is currently being used?

    Thanks. I actually have it installed. But this utility only tells you how much Video RAM do you have. I want a utility that can keep track on how much Video RAM currently being used.

    For example, I have 64MB Video RAM. When running certain application, I want to know how much out of that 64MB is currently being used by the application.

    I don't think there is such an application to tell you what percentage of your current graphics memory is actually put to use.

    Actually there is. But I forgot how it is called and I am searching for it right now. I saw it in a PC magazine that I don't have right now.

    Yea, I saw it too in PC Magazine. If you don't get the link up, I'll try to remember to get it when I get home. :)
