How Do You Increase Shared Video Memory In BIOS In Windows XP?
1. Start up your computer and enter your BIOS setup. You will do this by tapping the appropriate key or keys during the boot up process. (Review the start-up messages on your screen for the particular key/s your system requires you to use). 2. Once you access your BIOS set up, select the Integrated Peripherals menu. 3. In the Integrated Peripherals menu, select the option for AGP aperture size. 4. Under this option, you will now allocate a specific amount of RAM for shared video memory. Generally, you may chose to allocate an amount ranging from 8MB to 64MB RAM or this purpose. In act, on newer PC’s, you may actually allocate up to 128MB of RAM for video memory. 5. With a desired amount of video memory specified, you will then save your changes. Exit your BIOS set up. Your PC now has a shared memory, with a portion of its RAM allocated for video memory, and the rest used by the CPU.
