Video RAM amount?

[lmorel]

We got up and running fairly quickly. Overwhelming amount of information in those reports but that's a good thing. Now here is a quick question: where can we find the amount of RAM for any video adapter? We have an HP shop. Mostly workstations, xw 4100, 4200, 4300 and 4400s. Most of the hardware is listed properly but when we read the details for any video adapter, it seems that the amount of RAM is missing. Here is an example:

Thank!! Easy!

Now, I can handle this, even though it's a little bit painful when you have 150 computers to assess.

Our CAD Administrator needs to collect hardware data ASAP. This might be as a fun trick to impress colleagues or friends at a party, but is it possible you guys actually build in this end result which would display 128 MB instead of 134217728? Much appreciated if you guys do that. Many thanks in advance!

134217728 bytes
134217728 / 1024 = 131072 KB
131072 /1024 = 128 MB

Thanks. Sorry if I sound dumb but how do you get 64 out of 67108864 and saying "you should do /1024/1024 to get 64 MB". I don't get it. I have another adapter that I know has 128MB and in Lansweeper it says 134217728. Please explain the process of produccing that number of 64MB. Thanks.

It is your third field

AdapterRAM: 67108864

in bytes, so you should do /1024/1024 to get 64 MB
