Total avail graphics memory 1790MB
Dedicated video memory 512MB
System video memory 0MB
shared video memory 1278 MB

it has nearly dedicated 1GB of RAM to video memory........if i take a 2GB RAM out.....am gettin tis video memory lower.......n what happens is tat whn i run games, it runs kinda slower than 2GB RAM level........my mobo doesnt support memory remapping.......what shud i do?4GB processing is slower than 2GB processin speed......suggest a solution other than removin 2GB RAM.....even my XP 64 bit shows nearly same result

In the RUN, type dxdiag and see how much RAM it is showing. If 4 GB is listed there, then everything is ok. N vidia cards usually share memory but dont just occupy it.
You should always clear your BIOS once when you are doing a system upgrade.... have you done that ?
