I have a note book computer running MS Vista Home Premium with a shared
graphics adapter. This diverts 256 MB of installed RAM and dedicates it to
the use of displaying graphics. I am aware that I can reduce the quantum of
RAM dedicated to the graphics adapter through the BIOS. I have just
increased the installed memory to 1.5 GB, which gives me 1,279 MB of
operating memory. That is working OK but could always do with improvement.
My query is this. To what extent can I usefully reduce the level of
dedicated RAM taking into consideration that I never use the machine for
computer games though I do view video clips, pictures and the odd movie. Or,
is it just a matter of trial and error?
Any advice will be appreciated.
