I have 1GB of RAM on my system and the user's manual of the motherboard says that the shared video memory could be up to 128MB, but in the BIOS, it only shows up to 64MB. Why?
@scooterx88 Reset your cmos battery. by removing the battery or by setting jumpers on your motherboard. anyway please use our facilities make your new querry as a new post thanks. @marv888 In case ou did not know Onboard Videos now a days uses soe of your systems memory and making them Graphics Memory this technology evolved to what we call Hyper Memory making your settings of 64MB as Max multiplying it b 2. makes it 128MB.

The message on the user's manual only indicates the possible maximum memory that can be shared with the video while in your bios you can see the actual shared memory. I think this could be case to do with the graphics card you are using i.e. is it onboard or an add on. In some cases too the manufactures of the motherboard are not the same manufactures of bios and therefore the manufacturer of the board has given it allowance to share up to 128mb while the bios manufacturer has given it up to 64mb. Remember many of the components on the board may come from different companies.

When in the bios have you tried the + or - or page up and page down or up/down arrows to change the amount the system uses for graphics when the onboard graphics is highlighted.

I didnt say its a seperate card, it's obviously not as you state it supports 128mb in the bios, have you looked n the bios to do what i suggested, or have you just looked at the other post.

The graphics card is onboard. It would not make sense because the user's manual is also about the BIOS and it shows 128MB.
ytp i tried pressing pageup or pagedown or + or - but i only get choices from 4MB to 64MB. If i add another gig of ram, making it a total of 2GB, do you think 128MB would show up?
