Its the Reserved size of physical memory that the computer will use if your video card runs out of memory.
Typically, you dont want this to exceed 128.

mmm....i have a ATI 9200 128 mram, it's posible to run out of memory whit one of this cards?
this was discussed VERY often here ....
yes you can .... just set the resolution to 1600x1200 or more and you will get into trouble someday ...
just do a serach in forum !

Bugs have been found with most newer cards and apetures above 128MB, (a lot of bios's that came out recently set default to 128mb to help avoid it.)
There's a few sites with benchmarks around showing 64/128/256 and the speed is pretty much the same no matter what it's set to with most cards, so play it safe and stick to 128MB is my advice.
Don't set it below 32mb(maybe 16) as this will disable AGP memory transfers.
