Its not that I was having problems it was just that I didn't understand what the graphics card view system topology info was telling me here----
Nvidia Quadro NVS 290
Total available graphics memory 3839mb
Dedicated graphics memory 256mb
Dedicated system memory 0mb
Shared system memory 3583mb
I see that the Shared system memory 3583mb + Dedicated graphics memory 256mb = Total available graphics memory 3839mbI was confused that it was a 256mb card and yet it said there was 3839 available ---I now know (with all the help here) that it is ----or has available if it needs it, half of my total 8gb ram
I was worried about the 4gb part when I should have 8gb ram, I have run the win7 ram test and it reports all 8gb running fine and so it looks like the card will just borrow up-to half of whatever I have installed.
I watched the ram and CUP usage during a heavy photo processing job and I was running out of CPU at 98% but still was only using 20% ram so have no ram issues.
