P4 HT 2.8ghz, 1.5gb memory, 160gb HD, ATI Radeon 9500.

I temporary have Ati Radeon 9550 256mb agp 8x card. In Personalize, display
settings, advance settings it display that i have:

Total Available Graphic Memory 767 MB,
Dedicated Video Memory 256mb
System Video Memory 0MB
Shared System Memory 511mb

Does this mean that ATI Radeon 9550 card is using my computer memory also?

Yes it is using 511 mb of your computers ram

511mb shared
256 mb onboard
767 mb total
 
It is allocating the memory address space it is not actully using the system
memory ito tsself and does not cause a problem unless you try and install
4GB of memory on a 32 bit OS system.
