I ran the DirectX diagnostic tool to find info on my laptop's video card, need help deciphering what it means?

Ok, so i wanted to find out about my video card, the type, how many MB ect.



So i ran the Directx diagnostic tool (version 10) to find out, and i am a bit confused with some things. First off, ill show you what it said under device in display tab: (i couldnt copy and paste so i did a print screen)

So the weird thing is that when i bought this laptop (compaq presario c774) the info from the store and the HP website said i had 64mb on the video card, but it had the capability to use a 251mb card (or something like that). I dismissed this as pretty useless since you cant change video cards in a laptop, so can anyone explain what is up with that?



So basically any info regarding the type and quality of this card is greatly appreciated, but i would like an answer to this question:



For gaming purposes, should i assume my video card has 64mb 251mb?



Thanks for your help!|||You have a integrated graphics card...built into your motherboard or an external one that just has the intel logo. Either way it's not very fast..but you can game, and Direct X doesn't lie, you have a 256 mb graphics card. They only come in these.. 8.16.32.64.128.256.512.1028...ect... |||no|||yeah its gotta be 256mb.. another way to cheack... if your right click on any part of the desktop (not an icon)... you'll get a little menu, go to properties.. thats your video info... then go to 'settings'... then 'advanced'... and then 'adaptor'... |||It appeaers to be an onboard video card meaning that it is part of the motherboard, and is able to use up to 251 MB of your RAM. so it pinches your ram to do graphics on demand.
