I need a little help regarding my Video Graphics Card.
It's an inbuilt Intel Graphics Card. I saw its properties in BIOS and it showed me that it was an 64 MB Card. But I doubted that because it cannot be that powerful. Then I used this tool, AIDA 32 to know about it. It also shows that it is a 64 MB card. Is it really powerful? I mean, that my RAM is 256 MB and Windows shows it 248 MB indicating that my card borrows memory from my main RAM. Is this card powerful or just ok?

you might want to increase your RAM. It's probably uses it like the ones on notebooks. the more basic ram the better they work.

This appears to be a shared-memory video card; that is, it has no onboard memory of its own but uses your PC's system memory (up to 64MB of it) for video operations. If you wish to get better performance out of this card, upgrading your RAM would be a good place to start.
