Is there a way to find out what video card you have without opening up your computer. If there is how do you do it? I know how to do this with the CPU and RAM, but not video cards.

Right-click on an empty spot on the desktop, choose Properties. On the settings tab, it should say X monitor on Y display adapter, X and Y being your monitor and video card of course. If you need more detail than what shows there, let us know.

Thanks (both of you)
also, how can you tell how many MB the card has?
