Video memory not recognized
anyone know of a reason that certain software, like
Microsoft Plus! for XP doesnt realize that I do have a video card with 16 MB memory on it? When I try to install certain features, like the games, it gives me an error saying I need at least 16 MB of video memory. Thank you for any help |

Video memory not recognized
Is it on a graphics card or is it 'shared' graphics memory?

Video memory not recognized
the 16MB is built into the video card itself.

Video memory not recognized
I can't think of a reason, unless the card is far too old to be correctly
recognized by XP. You might want to think about something a little newer with more memory..... 16mb is not very much these days. There are plenty of cheapo 64mb AGP cards that can be obtained for $30-40.... sure they're not the best or fastest out there, but they're better than any card with 16mb.

Thank you.
So... Does anyone know why a video card's memory is not recognized as sufficient to certain software but not all? |
