Field Note #1 @nfoav8or 2008-10-31

see your other thread on vram issues... its your graphics... you need a card that supports QE/CI via Hardware support for final cut studio and I wouldn't doubt that VLC needs a better graphics system (not at all the same requirements, just a bit better than you have right now)

Field Note #2 @nfoav8or 2008-10-31

well then you'd have to get a mini-graphics card. Sucks, but this is the case bud.
