[dba-Tech] SP3

I've got 256mb on my gfx card, was looking for a 512mb when I bought it, but
they were hideously expensive at the time.

How much memory is on your video card?  I no longer have a (working) machine
running an x32 windows with 4 gigs so I can't check it right now, but I have
in the past and did see more than 3 gigs.

BTW I too installed SP3 on a laptop I was working on and it went in without
a complaint and worked fine.
