it should but it will depend on the chips set.
I had a 64MB PCI ATI radeon card running x86 windows Vista beta for a friend a while back.
so in short yes it should be fine.
however i'm using a 256MB ATI radeon GPU, 3GB RAM, AMD Sempron3400 CPU with 6 200GB seagate hard drives amongst a host of other accessories. and running the x64 verion of the beta and wow it is a lot better than xp performance wise in my case. for example just ideling in xp my system runns at around 80% of CPU performance, where as vista the ideling rate is down to under 50% on average. with the ram remaining at under 50% for most applications except when i run resource intensive programs such as the media centre program or the TV tuner card.
but all in all great.
so to sum up the short answer is yes your 128MB card should be fine. however make sure that the manufacturer provides vista drivers for the card.

Windows Vista Enterprise Hardware Planning Guidance
According to MS, Graphics Memory of 128mb puts your card at the minimum requirements.

Windows vista has video accelaration pmt software. In other words it needs 128mb to run at full capacity, it needs 256mb to look really really good. But it also means that if you are generaly good with computers you should be able to get it to run on a 64mb if needed. When you load it, just let it do all automatic settings and it will figure it out for you.

If ur running Vista
I would feel much safer with an SLI 256mb
or a 512mb
a good thing to do is SLI 512mb
thats only if u have money though
cuz 2 512mb cards can get quite expensive

yeah its the minimum i think. but if you have a really fast 128mb card, you will be fine.

its advisable, that u have 256mb but it should work ok
it depends more on the other hardware in your machine eg the hard drive, CPU, RAM.
