I'm just guessing there (i don't even have a radeon card), but can you
try with a lower VideoRam value ?

Kewl - I missed that!

IT WORKS!

Funny how it used to work with 512MB specified, but now only works with 256MB. But I'm not complaining!

They probably capped the amount of mappable video RAM for AGP and removed that cap tor PCIe so it bites you in the arse now.

have fun
