just one thing: Please do not work with kilobyte, in any of the values My default nexus is about 200 to 500 MB, speeds up level loading a lot For video memory i take about 250 MB as granted (most today graphics have a lot more) sys_memory is the normal virtual RAM, so with gamestudio maximum here is ~3.5 GB, as most modern PCs have about 4 GB, you can use this

IIRC Gamestudio is not 64bit, and as far as i know it has not the LargeAddressAware-Flag, so it can consume only 2GB? (Correct me if i am wrong, MasterQ32, JCL)

As to my knowledge, the engine is large address aware, so you can use about 3 GB. Thanks for the clarification Is this somewhere mentioned in the manual?

One further quesiton: It is not really important, but is interesting me:
For example: The graphic card has a limit of 250 MB.
Now you start a game that needs 200 MB of it and another game at the same time that needs also 200 MB of it.
How does the video card handle this situation?

How does the video card handle this situation? Streaming between Ram and VRam which is sloooow(That is handled by the drivers IIRC)
