Hi guys,

This is probably (hopefully) an easy fix, but i need to alter my graphics memory,  does it need to be done on BIOS, if so, how?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

you need to set this in BIOS under the heading GFX Configuration.

Taken from the User Manual:
Quote
UMA Frame Buffer Size
This item is configurable only when Integrated Graphics is set to Force. Frame buffer size is the total
amount of system memory allocated solely for the onboard graphics controller. MS-DOS, for example, will
use only this memory for display.
Options are: Auto (default), 256M, 512M, 1G, 2G

This can only be set if you are only using the On-Board graphics. If you are using and add on GPU then you can't alter this setting.
Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.
