WinXP reporting incorrect video RAM


Recommended Posts

My video card (GeForce 7300GS 256MB RAM PCI-e) is reported by WinXP Home SP2

as having 512MB of video RAM. I've updated drivers/rolled back drivers and

graphics intensive programs often crash to POST or to desktop. One

application (Age of Empires III) did give me a hint in an error message after

crash to desktop - video RAM = 0 - which didn't seem reasonable. Sys = AMD

64 X2 5600, 2GB RAM

 

I do build my systems and this is first time I've had this problem. Could

it be chipset drivers?

 

Thanks

TurboCache perhaps?
