Right now I have 64Mb. I've ordered another 128Mb. Do you know what version of
DirectX you have? Mine says 4.0 and I know there is 6.1. I just purchased the
system about 1 month ago, its hard to believe that IBM would ship an outdated
version of DirectX though.

P.S I have an IBM aptiva 530. It has an AMD processor running at 475mghrtz.
    It came with 8Mb vidio Ram and a ATI Rage Pro Turbo grahics card.
    What type of system do you have
Thanks for the info.
