I say possibly because looking at my own computer's specs seems to contradict that theory. |

| | Even when you have a separate graphics card, memory will be set aside for graphics if you also have integrated graphics on your motherboard and/or you are missing the correct driver. If you disable the integrated graphics from the bios, you can get that memory back |

| | Be happy, I can only use 3GB out of 4GB on my setup in both 32/64 Bit with 256MB onboard graphics.  |
