karlo123 Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 You have to adjuct the amount of RAM allocated for the GPU in the BIOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aktarerz Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 There is no option for that. Btw, my laptop is a inspiron 6400 with 2gb ram. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToGr82B4Gotn Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Thats going to be the Maximum amount of RAM that your video is going to use. THe only way to possibly get more is to install more physical RAM into your MOBO. The VRAM is shared, it comes out of your system RAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercurysquad Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Don't worry about that. According to the GMA specs, the gpu is able to allocate system memory on demand, but for reporting to the OS how much memory it has, a certain set value is used. This does not affect performance.

Haha no, I live in a university campus. Hadn't updated the test since last year and ran it again, it went up Downloads sometimes run at 80 mbps (eg. Rapidshare or sites of other universities). I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
