Are you using a flat screen? If so what's you pixel refresh rate maybe the monitor cant handle the graphic's of doom 3. I had that problem with my dell flat screen the monitor didn't have a fast enough pixel refresh rate.

There's a 256 version of the 6600 I think. But anyway, video memory is only for putting the graphics up higher. With 128 I can run BF2 on medium. And BF2 on low is similar to Doom 3 on high.

By the way what is this BF2? Battle Field 2 perhaps?

if you run alot of ram then the vid card memory won't make much difference. when you start getting into the dual card setups with 256mb then you'll see some diference but between 128 and 256 card size you won't feel much especially if you're running 768mb+ ram.
now if you go from a 64mb Geforce MX440 to a 256mb Geforce 6200 OC you'll feel a difference

You think it will have a fast enough refresh rate though?
