Re: Upgrade GPU or Ram

So you say I should have a total of 2GB of RAM and at least 256MB of
dedicated video memory? How can i know if my cpu and hard drive are "working
fine?" I am looking at my task manager right now as I type this. My RAM
usage jumps around from about 3% to 20%. My physical memory (i have no idea
what that is) remains constant at about 580MB. Thoughts?
