| Guest | Dedicated Graphical Memory & Shared System Memory Hello, I have a Asterope RC410 mobo - http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...204837&lang=en I just installed a ATi Radeon HD 2600Pro (512MB, PCI-E), I have onboard VGA which had 699MB of shared system memory. I have 2GB of RAM installed When I go to the Display Settings it says that I have 767MB of shared system memory. How can I disable memory sharing or how do I reduce the amount of shared memory? (without removing the drivers for the onboard, as I tried that and my other hard drive with XP on it and it f***ed XP) |

| Guest | Re: Dedicated Graphical Memory & Shared System Memory Either it's there or it's not, depends on the system BIOS. There may be a motherboard jumper to disable the intergrated video, check your manual. -- Best of Luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Nutcase" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/ Windows help - www.rickrogers.org My thoughts http://rick-mvp.blogspot.com "Jason" <slimboyphat10@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:84A98858-D5F3-4897-AAF3-0BA980DAA55A@xxxxxx Quote: > "Hello, > > I have a Asterope RC410 mobo - > http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/d...204837&lang=en > I just installed a ATi Radeon HD 2600Pro (512MB, PCI-E), I have onboard > VGA > which had 699MB of shared system memory.
