Some antialiasing levels require a large amount of video memory. If the level you requested requires more video memory than available and you see unexpected results, try selecting the next lower value, and so on, until you achieve the desired result. You may also want to experiment with different screen resolutions, refresh rates, and/or color depths until you arrive at a setting or combination of settings for antialiasing to work.
This section provides tips for how to use the Antialiasing - Mode settings in the Manage 3D Settings page.
NOTE: This feature is available only with GeForce 8 Series and later GPUs.
