I have an A7V400-MX system with shared video.

If I put in anAGP card, can I disable the on-board video?

The options in the BIOS show the smallest shared video memory allocation
at 16 MB.

I want to free it all up - is that possible?

Thanks...Brad
 
Turns out as soon as you install a real AGP card, it automagically
deactivates the on-board video and frees up the shared memory.

Click to expand...

It'll disable itself automatically and free up all the memory available
as system memory. So if you have a 512Mb stick sharing 64Mb now, it'll
come up as 448Mb. Stick an AGP card in, the full 512Mb becomes
available to Windows.
