    Some of the G6s had integrated video? That's completely different from the machine I worked on way back when.

    The selection of PCI video cards certainly isn't as good as the selection of AGP cards, and it's harder to find PCI cards at giveaway prices, but any fairly recent PCI video card will run DirectX, Direct Show, etc., and at better speed than your old integrated card and get you around that 8 meg barrier.

    In the meantime, you can try going into your BIOS setup (F2 at boot if I remember right), and there's probably an option there to set the size of your video memory. 8 megs may be your max, but it's worth a look to see if you can do 16.
