I then lower the screen res from 1024x768 to 800x600 and the alloc works. Just in time for the Xserver to die after reporting that the server had locked up. Clearly I'm not going to get far with the screen res at 800x600 when playing a 1280x720 movie. I'll want to have 1280x768 or 1366x768 as the screen resolution. Which is going to make the memory situation worse. Is the issue with memory a BIOS problem? Do I need a BIOS that allows more the 8MB to be set aside for video? Barry
