The 11mb comes from the system memory, so it robs the system of RAM. You most likely have an intel 81x series chipset inside your computer... bascially this means that you have no actualy video card, but your chipset contains graphics into the motherboard. The intel integrated.... ----My card is a PCI based video card equipped with 128Mb DDR-Ram. again look better: ......If you want to install a video card, you will have to install a PCI based video card, unless if you upgrade to a motherboard that contains an AGP slot. The PCI based video card will improve performance greatly, but it will still not be comparable to an AGP based video card. A popular video card that is in the PCI format is the ATI Radeon 32mb SDR. The problem is, ATI may have discontinued this card, so it may be hard to find..
