[HP Envy 17t] Any way to increase dedicated memory ram (Virtual RAM)

Many of the newer more demanding games require that a certain amount of RAM is virtually dedicated to your graphics card, and after hours of trying to figure out how to do that I came up empty. On most desktops and some laptops you can go into the BIOS and change it, but not on the HP Envy 17t (Tried updating BIOS). I'm really not sure how much of a difference it would make for gameplay, but considering how I have an extra 11 gb of RAM when I'm rarely using more than 4 gigs it'd be nice to be able to put some of it to use. There's also a few games I want to play that require a minimum amount to even be launched at all (COD: AW). Tried customer support to no avail. Got nowhere after an hour and didnt want to bother to sit on the phone with them. Googling also didn't help much. So has anyone figured out yet?
OS: Windows 8.1
Current Dedicated Video Ram: 0 mb

Hi,
That's true. System will automatically assign available system RAM to VRAM when required up to the max limit. For example:
system has 2 Gb free RAM and the max limit for VRAM is 1.5Gb, system will allocate 1.5 Gb of RAM to VRAM
system has 1 Gb free RAM and the max limit for VRAM is 1.5Gb, system will allocate 1 Gb of RAM to VRAM

    Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus.

    In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

  • Siri volume seems low - any way to increase it?

    I just got a new iPhone 5 today and am trying Siri for the first time. It seems to work ok, but the volume of Siri's voice seems quite low to me.
    The speakers on the iPhone 5 itself are ok because I can play music in iTunes very loudly, so it's not the general volume settings or the speakers. It seems to be just Siri's voice.
    Is there any way to increase Siri's voice volume?
    Thanks,

    Never mind. I see. Siri simply has it's own volume and you can adjust it while in Siri itself. It was set low by default.

  • Any way to increase font size in RoboHelp UI?

    Hi. Is there any way to increase the font size of the text in the RoboHelp (11) UI itself, that is, for example, the items that appear in the Project manager, Topic List, Single Source Layouts, and other panels?
    I have my monitor set to optimal resolution, but this seems to cause this text to be too small for comfort. Is there a way to increase the font size from within RH? If not, is there a Windows-level change I can make?
    Thanks!

    Thanks, Peter.  Yes, that's what it appears to be.  So, in messing about with the screen resolution and text size settings on my new Windows 7 machine, I somehow irritated RoboHelp.  This is what it looks like:
    I got responses from Adobe person assigned to my bug request.  He said all was OK on their side.  He said to try to change the Custom DPI text size for my machine, but that did not change the RH display, only the toolbar and pod headings.  He suggested I uninstall then reinstall RH 10.
    I also asked what the difference was between the RH source files that present the toolbar and that retrieve the project files as listed (includes the Single Source Layout pod entries also, though).  We'll see.
    Have a feeling I'll have to reinstall.
    Thanks for all your help.

  • URGENT: Is there any way to increase no of "Color Lables"?

    Hi there,
    Is there any way to increase no of "Color Lables" and the "Rating" in LR?

    There are many other ways to designate "categories" instead of color labels and stars. Keywords come to mind. Smart collections also do the job to designate where you are in your workflow.

  • Any way to increase screen size?

    Hello - is there any way to increase the size of my webpage display? I know I can reset the font size, but is there any way to actually increase the size (other than just hitting the green button in the upper lefthand corner)?
    Thanks!

  • Any way to increase BIS polling speeds?????

    Is there any way to increase the polling speed of the BIS for Earthlink? I have a mindspring email account (Earthlink) and it doesn't get pushed instantaneously to me. It usually just pulls a group of emails every 15 minutes or so. My other email account pushing to my BB Tour from my GoDaddy accounts come right away. Help anyone??

    No, there is not.
    A 15 (roughly speaking) cycle is routine on POP accounts. You can't change that. If the RIM servers find new mail, it reverts to 2 minute polling for a couple of cycles and should it find new mail yet again, retains that 2 minute polling cycle until which time it doesn't find new mail waiting, and then reverts back to the 15 minute cycle.

  • I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11 and am now, when uploading latest photos, getting a message saying that my startup disk is full.  Is there any way of increasing the capacity of the start up disk?

    I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11.  As I've been uploading the latest photos in the last two days I've been getting a message stating that my start-up disk is nearly full.  I had no idea there was a limit.  Is there any way of increasing its capacity?  I have been shooting in Raw of late and I know it takes up a lot of space but I have heard of other people who have over 20,000 photos on their computers, so what is going on here??

    Two possibiilities here:
    1. Your start up disk is nearly full
    Or
    2. You have minor damage to the iPhoto Library and it's giving you a bogus message.
    But here's the thing: A full start up disk is a very serious issue and needs to be dealt with fast.
    So, how big is your Hard Disk? How much free space on it?

  • Is there any way to plug a memory stick into an iMac

    Is there any way to plug a memory stick into an iMac

    When you say "Memory Stick" I interpret that to mean a Sony Memory Stick from a Digital Camera or other Sony device. If that is correct yes you can plug it in, you need a USB Memory Stick card adapter like this one from Amazon

  • Is there any way to increase the contrast of the slider in the Table of Contents? It becomes very hard to see as you slide down a presentation. This has been asked before, a few years back. Has a solution been provided?

    I designed an interactive script using Captivate 7. It works like a branching scenario, and is currently in use by about 350 phone operators, soon to be over 750. Everybody is pretty happy about it, but I am getting complaints - especially form the older people - that the slider in the TOC is very hard to see, and I agree - as you scroll down the TOC entries, the slider becomes lighter and lighter in color. Is there any way to tweak it so that I can increase contrast, or recolor it in a darker tone? I know this was discussed a couple of years ago, but I don't know if the issue was addressed by Adobe, or if anyone has come up with a solution.

  • Speaker volume too low on 3GS - any way to increase it?

    The speaker volume is too low on my IPhone 3GS. Other than the volume control is there any other way to increase it?

    With volume control do you mean the buttons on the side of the phone? or in settings? When playing something on speaker and i want it louder, I just click the up button on the side of the phone.

  • Are there any ways to increase security in ODI

    Hi,
    Are there any other ways to increase security in ODI. I have heard about External password storage, External authentication and SSO from over here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/integrate.1111/e12643/whatsnew.htm#CHDEAIAB
    apart from these are there any methods?

    I do not fully understand the meaning of "Top" in the phrase "Top In App Purchase". In Settings there is an option to invoke restrictions. One restriction option is to prohibit In-App Purchases.
