hey all, on a tight budget I had to completely overhaul my machine. I wound up getting a GeForce 6100SM-M2 board with and AMD 64x2 dual core 5000+ cpu. the problem i have is that when i try to up the video memory in the bios to 256mb Windows refuses to restart.

I have 2gb of ddr2 667mhz memory and I'm running Vista with all updates. I will be putting a better graphics card in whenever I can afford it (can anyone recommend one for around the 100-150 yo-yo mark???). Any help in my current problem is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
D. :cool:

Have you tried updating the bios ? It might help with the problem. And for a graphics card i would reccomend a 9600gt, as it is right in your price range and a very good card.
