I have a dell inspiron 5150 with the nVidia GeForce FX Go5200 w/ 64 mb of ram. It seems that this is the best video card for this system.

I only use this system as a backup/testing system.

I want to load Vista RC1 but I cannot use Aero (have not installed yet, waiting for download to finish) as the upgrade advisor from MS says I need to have 128mb of video ram.

Is there any way to get around this? I was hoping to find a video card but I was not able. Is there any way to make the video system also use some of the system ram?

Thanks.
