128MB GeForce 8400M GS, would this video card be able to run videos with Virtual DJ?

I'm trying to order another Dell with Xp but they don't seem to have 256mb video cards on the business section.

SirDJ : With Vista, it will probably be okay from what I've read but have not personally tested.

With XP, 128mb is possible but you'll have to throttle down the quality versus performance settings in order to get it to run crash free.

Based on my personal experience with 128mb cards (caveat: 128mb on-board, 128mb emulated) , 256mb cards (caveat: 256mb on-board only, then a 256mb on-board & 256mb emulated), and recently a 512mb card (caveat: all 512 on-board, no emulation), the 512mb does the best quality at the highest performance levels.

As usual personal preferences and budgetary concerns reign supreme. Your tastes and mileage may vary.
