owh and forgot :) in most cases, dont worry about the system tells u that u have 251mb as graphic memory, despite that it shows 251mb for 945 graphics, in the hardware, full 256mb graphic memory is working so it does not effect performance in any way, just a misinterpret number by the system it self
