Guys I still have this problem in Win2k with my G400 or G450
This is a discussion about Guys I still have this problem in Win2k with my G400 or G450 in the Windows Hardware category; Ok I had this problem with win2k before dx8 final came out and now that I have installed that the problem still remains. When I run 3dmark2000 and goto the listing for the g450 it says that I have 48908k total video memory and 47372k total texture memory.
Ok I had this problem with win2k before dx8 final came out and now that I have installed that the problem still remains. When I run 3dmark2000 and goto the listing for the g450 it says that I have 48908k total video memory and 47372k total texture memory. No matter what apeture size I set in the bios (its at 128 megs now) the texture memory never gets bigger and thus I can never run the 64 meg texture test in win2k (in win9x it runs fine because 3dmark2000 correctly tells me I have like 90-100 megs of texture memory) Any ideas on this im stumped completely.

pr-man don't worry about it well know in Windows2000 with all video cards A-Z.
using System Memory for textures doesn't really work in win2k. Get a 64Mb card like me!

think about it folks win2k will only give the gfx card FREE memory for use as AGP textures - so even if the bios is willing to allocate 128meg out of 128meg to the graphics card windows gets first tabs on it and there is probably only 20 odd meg free - check it using task manager
