ga-m56s problem

[alexrac]

Hello guys.I'm using a ga-m56s mobo and i bought a gts250 video card.The problem is that the motherboard shares my ram with the video card,and i dont want it.

This motherboard doesnt have any onboard video card,and in bios i dont find anything related to shared memory.

Hi there.

sorry but I am a little bit confused. What do you mean by the motherboard is sharing memory with the graphics card?

This motherboard does not have on-board graphics and I don't think it would take any for use on your GTS 250 graphic card.

No I agree with absic there is no way that your graphics card is using any of your system memory. If you are losing memory compared to what you should have installed it is down to something else. A few more details of what you have and how much memory you are supposed to have installed etc would help a lot.

heres my dxdiag.

     Display Memory: 1776 MB
   Dedicated Memory: 497 MB
      Shared Memory: 1279 MB

what that means then?where the hell it gets 1279 mb then?

i've build the pc myself,i'm not new to computers.maybe windows 7 is doing that?

1279 MB + 497 MB = 1776 MB total memory. Some is for the shaders and some for the other graphics.

Your total system memory is 3070MB RAM
