They guy who built this computer put in a chaintec motherboard wich has a gforce 4 mx on it and it can be set to 32 64 or 128 and he set it to 64 meg but after i installed win xp home instead of xp pro that was on there it reset it back to 32 megs and i was wondering how to set it back to 64. and he said it was done through the bios.

Actually, my friend, on my Dell configuration, the MX 420 is given a 128 MB arpeture in the Bios.

this is done by pressing a key [to reset], and I don't remember which one it is maybe someone on this board knows

Okay, I figured it out.

As you boot, press F2, after entering setup, change the AGP arpeture to 1/3 or 1/2 of your physical ram (I have 786 RDRAM so I set my AGP arpeture to 256 by selecting the option and pressing the spacebar to change the value)
