I need to install a Radeon 9200 SE (128mb) video card, and im confused?
i have no idea how to install this, like drivers, chipsets, etc. can anyone tell me how to do this, really overwhelmed here.|||That's an old card, and probably AGP (or possibly PCI)
Just insert it into the AGP slot on your motherboard. If there are any connectors, plug them in. When you start up, you'll have to download the driver from the ATI/AMD site

When a game specification ask for 128mb video card, what does that mean?
does that mean 128 of memory type? or 128 of memory interface? sorry for the noob question..
(' ' ,)|||Noob or not you asked it short, sweet and concise. We like that.
The number does refer to the the minimum amount of ram needed on the vid card to run the game.
Kinda related, some manufacturers will get kinda shady on the specs. Specifically, vid cards can have the ability to borrow some of the system to augment what it has. The shadiness I'm referring to is when the manufacturer uses a larger typeface, on the advertising and packaging, for the maximum amount of memory amount the card can BORROW, not what it has by itself, without the borrowing. Obviously, if your system ram is being borrowed like this, it will not work to it's full potential. The drag may or may not be noticeable, but it will keep your computer from running at its best.
Last thing. Game specifications are suggestions. You could go lower than their recommendations. You will also see why they put the bar where the did. So if you are a little shy on the specs, you'll probably be okay. OTOH, if your computer is only half as powerful, as the minimum required, go watch paint dry as that will happen at a much qwicker rate then the game will run.
Qwik qwestion, not so qwik answer. Hope that helps, ave|||As in there being 128mb of memory on the graphics card that will be used purely for graphics processing.|||Its asking for a video card that has 128mb of dedicated memory on it. Memory type doesn't apply|||It means your graphics card needs at least 128 megabytes of memory on it. To check and see for yourself how much memory your graphics card has, click on start, then click on run. Type in "dxdiag" and press enter. When a window pops up, press yes. Click on the "Display" tab on top, and where it says "aprrox. total memory", this is where it tells you how much memory your video card has.
Good luck!

How do i know if my computer has a 128MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0?
I need to know if my computer has this b/c i just bought the new Sims 3 game for PC and it wont let me install it. Help?|||Go to http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/ref… look for The Sims 3 (under T) and the site will tell you if your computer can run it, including the video information. (It analyzes your computer.)
How much would a 128MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 cost?
I need a 128MB Video Card with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 for my new sims 3 game an i would like to know how much one will cost for a good one. It is for windows xp.|||Well most new computer onboard graphic does has 256MB video memory and already support pixel shader 2.0 , if your computer is old, you can spend a decent graphic just to play sim 3 for around $50 example 3650|||Yeah, I have a HP Pavilion a1034n. Do I need a chip thing too?
|||Where could I buy this then for what that price? Could you please be specific?
|||It's funny how no one is answering this girl's question. She's asking a specific question and everyone is going around it. Anyway hun, I don't know what kind of computer you have. For example I have a dell, and I have the Sims 3 too so I need one, so what I am going to do is go to www.dell.com and search for one. Also, try best buy, Walmart, stores like that. Call dell first and simply ask them "What are all the graphic cards that support Pixel Shader 2.0" and write down the cards he/she names, and look for the cheapest out of the bunch. Or just ask them, how much is the cheapest card that support Pixel Shader.|||I will give you a few online links to reputable sites.

There are three main types of graphic card interfaces AGP, PCI-E 16, and PCI. You must find out which one your computer has before you can buy a card. The best way to find which one your computer has is to visit the manufacturers website and locate your computer specifications. BTW The sims 3 rocks I played most of last night :P|||You may actually have difficulty finding a card with only 128mb vram these days, most are 512mb and onwards. You can easily get a card below (or around) $100 that will suit your needs though.
Look for an Nvidia 8000 series or ATI 3800 series or higher card. It won't be hard.
Good luck :D|||I am assuming you have a desktop so here...

That card should do the trick. If you don't mind spending a little more cash I would honestly recommend this card. It has better cooling and doesn't suck up as much resources.
