IGP = Integrated Graphics processor; a chip on your motherboard. But remember that on-board graphics are mostly slower as they share system RAM rather than having their own dedicated, fast RAM. They can also permit to admit less heat and thus can't run as fast as external graphics cards.
When they say the IGP graphics chip has 128MB memory, this means there is 128MB hypermemory (faster as system RAM) especially for this graphic chip reserved on the motherboard. This fixes somewhat the problem of integrated graphics chips using slow system RAM.
AGP = a special slot (colored in brown) on your motherboard to plug an AGP compatible graphics card in it...
I knew what agp was, but i didnt even knew IGP existed
