Hello, I am trying to convert the value that AvailVidMem() gives me to ??MB form. How would I divide this

1 MB = 1,048,576 Bytes

This will tell you the amount of available video memory, in MB:

freeVidMemMB# = AvailVidMem() / 1024.0 / 1024.0

As for your other question, I wrote a userlib to report various system resources, which I posted on this site. I've bought an entire new system since and don't have the code any more.

I've tried searching for it, but the search facilities on this site are absolutely abysmal. I just couldn't find it anywhere. Its in here somewhere though. :/
