It won't really run 256MB on the video card. There is a way to get it to use 128MB from the MB, but it doesn't really help performance.

Yeah, it's just a BIOS setting, and as you said, it really don't help at all.

Is that card PCI? I had the 9250 256MB PCI card years ago, ran things well on low settings...
