When you install a new airplane from the fleet library it automatically gets some of your system specs. When it reads mine it gets my video card but not all the ram on it, another words I have ATI 4650 withe 512MB but the installer sees only 256MB and I think I've seen this somewhere else also I think was under system. I'm not at home right now so I'm can't check to be sure. So I'm not sure my computer is reading 512MB. Anyone got any ideas.

??? Your texture is what it is - it doesn't "read" anything about your system - what does happen is your system "reads" the type of texture on all objects, DXT, BMP, etc.
Hi-Res model, low-res model, VC, etc./

Thought something was wrong b/c the installer was correct on my old computer with a different card. Trying to make sure i didn't buy a card that said 512MB on the box but actually only had 256MB

Andy, he's talking about the installer. When you install anything from the fleet library, it pulls up your system specs.
Adam, I have the same problem. My 1024mb ATI 4890 is only read at 256mb too.

Go to Start -> Run and type msinfo32.exe and press enter.
Go to System Summary -> Components -> Display and look for the value of "Adapter RAM".
This is your display card actual value, irrespective of how anything else has read it.
As long as this value is in line with what you think it should be, don't worry about it too much.
