Title: Want to know about graphics card
Post by: Ed Knight on September 24, 2004, 11:02:03 AM

Hello, I have recently bought a laptop and was wondering what size my graphics card was. Ill list all the info that i think might help.

In device manager through the control panel the thing that is under display adapters is "Intel(R) 82852/82855 GM/GME graphics controller". It doesnt specify whether it is 32mb or 64mb or whatever. If anyone can help, or tell me where to go on the system to find it i would be very grateful. or if you need more information, and could tell me where i can get it from that would also help. thanks.

Ed

Google (http://www.google.com) is a good place to get started. I think the first search result hit the bulls eye. Enjoy.

Intel® 82852/82855 Graphics Controller Family (http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel852gm/)

Try this out

Right-click on the desktop and select Properties.
Click the Settings tab.
Click the Advanced button.
Click the Intel® Graphics Technology or Intel® Extreme Graphics tab.


If it doesn't help...... go here http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/intel852gm/

thanks. So i have gone into this adapter section. it states all these things like chip type and memory. If it says 64 mb, this means i have a 64mb grpahics card which is enough to play doom 3?
