I have an Advent laptop with Motherboard: DIXONSXP Crestline+ICH8M and an Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS (G85M) video card with 256MB of DDR2 SDRAM 64 bit Running Vista Home. Just lately it began crashing my laptop. I donloaded new drivers from Nvidia but it made no difference. I can use the laptop if I disable and uninstall the Nvidia software but sometimes, on boot up it displays 6 desktops on the screen and is unusable. Is this a known problem with Nvidia and Advent laptops?

SOURCE: Graphics Comparison

I beleive that your onboard is pretty much the equivelent to the geforce card you have spec-wise. But the 3300 a much new technology and has a faster processing speed in comparison to the geforce 6600 (not sure about the 7200).

In anycase, if you get yourself another ATI HD card (2400, 3450, or 3470) you can actually run them both as a Crossfire set up. Also, you can slight overclock your onboard video just a tad if that is a route you wanted to take.

The HD 3300 onboard was meant to be a better option over more entry level cards on the market today.

If you're still not sure, you can always do a 3dmark or gaming FPS test on each gpu to see which gives you the best outcomes.

About geforce 8400gs gen2 tc1g 64bit ddr2, it is okey to run in window7 32bit. i already install and run but only read 512mb.

There should be no reason why this card won't work with Windows 7 32bit, it could be as simple as your Graphics drivers are out of date. I recommend downloading the latest Windows 7 drivers for your card at the Nvidia website.

Just remember graphics RAM and SDRAM are two completely different things so they don't add up.
As far as I know the 8400GS is a 256MB card.

    The lower one with Core 2 duo with 3MB l2 cache is better.
