memory!

[Christopher]

I fianally got some for my eMachines T2080. It is defiantly faster now that its at 1GB instead of 480MB(512MB but formatted weirdly).

I'm guessing if it was using built-in video it reserved 32MB of system memory for that purpose.

If you have a discreet video card (AGP/PCI/PCI Express) that memory is not reserved.

If you have a separate video card and it still shows up missing some memory, disable the onboard video in the BIOS.

Well it shows up as 1GB and I have some low end so i think its back to normal. nvida
