What will happen if there is not enough? I ask because as a GeForce4 4200 Go Ti 8AGP user on a laptop I am very interested in the cube desktop effect. I can only have it with 3d enabled, but after 5-6 windows the Black starts.
Thanx for your help on this issue, BTW. It has been a lingering issue since Feisty betas.
