Not sure Al but I've only got 32mb on a gforce 2 that was added to a pci slot which you may have,You'd have to disable the on board card and add on to a pci slot,They're pretty cheap and work fine..Hope this helps,,

It should be playable, but you will need to tone down the special effects in the game options menu...
The shared graphics (on-board video) may give you 10 to 20 meg of video allowable to the game... Your best bet is to spend a few bucks and get a PCI video card (you can pick them up for under 75 bucks for something decent, make sure the box says PCI).. Then you will need to disable the on-board video, follow the directions found at computer manufactures recommendations... Good luck...

I really don't think it will be very playable. Even if you could play it, the video quality would be so low it would drive you nuts.

SIS is always low grade filth... cancel your order....
jesus SIS650 set does not even have a support for a gl driver... I have that chip set in my gigahertz laptop with 512 ram and it barely runs bg2 with miserable graphics. ( ignoring altogetehr the problem or the lcd ^_^ )
