Is your card a 64 MB verson or a 128 mb verson?

AGP aperture has nothing to do with your graphics card's RAM. Basically, it's the amount of system RAM that's allocated to processing textures in games. It doesn't have much of an affect these days, with GPUs becoming better and better and less and less stress on the CPU. It made much more of a difference a few years ago.

Old rule of thumb was for you to set it to half of your system's RAM, although I'm not sure if that holds much (if any) merit these days.

Half of your video cards ram iirc.
