I've not found the option to increase shared memory of intel hd graphics card in BIOS

Hi! I don't find that option. I have the 2.08 version, but the 3.01 is out there. The graphics performance is not very well now. Is there a way to increase this memory to 256 mb or more? Thanks in advance

hi freinn,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
This is on Auto by default.
    The amount of memory shared to your graphics is dependent on how much RAM you have. Also even if you max out the RAM capacity there will no big jump on the shared memory just few MBs will be added
    The Manual is not available even if there is an updated BIOS.
Even if a Manual option is available still you can only share the same maximum as the one on Auto. Not a big jump.
i hate to say it but that's how it will be
Hope this helps
Cheers!

  • Hp 15-r033tx laptop does not show the Nvidia chipset information and only uses Intel HD graphics

    My Hp 15 r033tx laptop has windows 8 64 bit installed in it and as it comes with NVidia Ge Force 820 M 2GB graphics card  , I have also installed Nvidia and Intel HD Graphic Drivers but in the dxdiag selection it does not list the Nvidia Chipset and information but only lists Intel HD Graphics with 1786 MB.
    Also it does not show any Dedicated Video Ram that is normally showing in my other friends desktop with Nvidia Graphics properly installed
    Any solutions?

    Hi @Suraj2410 ,
    Thank you for your inquiry, I will do my best to help.
    I see that you have Windows 8 installed and are not seeing your switchable graphics.
    When I checked the specification page I see it came with Free Dos.  When I checked for support drivers they are listed for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1.

  • Increasing shared VRAM on Intel HD Graphics 3000

    Hello,
    Question about MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) with Intel HD Graphics 3000. I upgraded RAM with 16GB, and wonder if it is possible to allocate more then 512 MB of system memory for shared VRAM. Now system profiler shows 512 MB shared VRAM, the same like it was with 8 GB RAM before the RAM upgrade.
    "About integrated video on Intel-based Macs" topic (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3246) mentions MBPs with 8 GB of RAM only.
    Thanks!

    HI M,
    On a Windows machine, you can go into the BIOS and change RAM allocation.
    I have found nothing to suggest the same is true on a Mac. It appears it is controlled in ROM, and unless Apple makes a firemware upgrade, it is what it its. Which begs the question, what is it?
    Given that the article you cite states the VRAM allocation goes from 256MB to 512MB by increasing RAM from 4GB to 8GB in one example, it would seem that amount might go up to 1GB VRAM with 16GB of RAM. As you're probably aware, Apple bases everything on RAM available at time of production of the Mac, and never goes back to change specs as RAM density increases, so it may also be "locked in" at 512MB for 8GB.
    Bottome line: It's possible the base VRAM available may indeed go up as needed on your Mac, but that's far from certain. There is information out there on the internet suggesting this "as needed" theory, so you may want to do further searching reading and see if you can find that needle in a haystack.

  • Increase shared memory by IGD (intel HD)

    when will the shared memory for intel HD graphics processor can be increase more than 256MB? some motherboard with some brand can assign until 1GB of RAM to the integrated graphic. future BIOS development should focus on this matter. 
    thank you

    the reason i asked is because the 'manual allocation' in the bios menu only limited to 256MB only.
    The BIOS has no control over the video memory.
    That 64/128/256 MB value is a legacy and it means the reserved system RAM for GPU.
    Most of the GPUs don't need more than 64MB to operate properly.
    But it's better to give them 128 or 256MB.
    Why?
    The "plug & play" (automatic allocation) mechanism was never a perfect one.
    Two devices sharing the same I/O addressing space might lead to conflicts and system crashes.
    You don't want another device to share system RAM with your GPU.
    For this reason it's much better to "lock" that RAM area and to reserve it for the GPU.
    Coming back to video memory, that will be allocated much later (after the OS is loaded) by the GPU.
    Intel Dynamic Video Memory Technology is used for that.
    Depending on the GPU, installed system RAM and application demand, up to 1.7 GB system RAM can be reserved as video memory.
    Edited:
    http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-029090.htm
    Up to 1.7GB usable video memory for HD 2000, 3000, 4000 and 4600 (all the Gen 2/Gen 3/Gen 4 Intel processors).

  • HT1296 When synching Outlook Contacts and calendars with iTunes for Windows, I do not get the option to "Synch Contacts with". It says, and cannot be changed, that it is synching with iCloud.  How do I get iTunes to give me an option other than iCloud?

    Using iTunes for Windows to synch my Outlook Contacts and Calendars into my iPhone 5, with the iPhone Device designated and in the Info tab, I do not have the option to "Synch Contacts with", but have an unchangeable message that it is synching with iCloud.

  • Why do I not have the option to publish my video demo to Adobe Connect?

    I'm new to Captivate and recorded a video demo for my co-workers instructing how to set up and run an Adobe Connect Meeting. We have an account to publish Adobe Presenter and Captivate content to Adobe Connect Pro, and use it to host our Adobe Presenter presentations. I was under the impression I could publish the video demo from Captivate much like I do the presentations from Presenter in PowerPoint, however when I go to publish my video demo I am not given the option to publish to Connect. From what I've found (here: http://www.adobe.com/support/captivate/advanced/publish_acrobat.html), you can select/edit the server(s) you publish to under the Quiz menu, however my video demo has no quiz and I have no quiz menu.
    This is what I get when I go to publish the demo:
    ..as you can see, no option to select a server.
    This is the Preferences window. Again, no place to select a server:
    I've found plenty of information on adding video demos to a Connect Meeting room, but I'd rather just publish it to Connect the way I do Presenter files. Is this possible or do video demos have to be added to meeting rooms instead? Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    It sounds like you have an iPhone 4. Please verify the model at: Settings - General - About - Model = ???

  • HP8610 does not offer the option to reverse print order

    The HP8610 does not offer the option to reverse print order. I downloaded the HP8600 driver and was able to do this. Will the driver for the HP8610 be updated to include this anytime soon?

    Apple also need to be told about such issues:

    I've found that the Music Search function has been crippled in recent months - it no longer dynamically updates the list on the right as you enter letters.

    Thanks for the help...I should have dug a little further and kept reading...I found the answer. I am using Gmail so all I had to do was go into my Gmail account settings and turn off email archiving. Now the default is delete when I edit or swipe.

  • AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found: The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll

    Ever since I recently upgrading Itunes, I cannot access the Itunes store, my phone will not sync to my laptop, and this pops up everytime I restart my computer: "AppleSyncNotifier.exe - Entry Point Not Found: The procedure entry point xmlTextReaderConstName could not be located in the dynamic link library libxml2.dll" I have tried several things without success. Can someone PLEASE tell me what else I can try. Thanks!

    Hi Janice - glad to hear you got one of your problems sorted
    I understand that your phone doesn't sync automatically when you connect it to your PC with iTunes running. First question is do you see that your phone is connected in iTunes when you plug it in? It should show on the left side of the page about halfway. Usually if you haven't already started iTunes, when you connect your phone to the PC it will open autoamtically and you will see the phone is connected.
    If it doesn't show as connected then I refer you to this page
    I can tell you that my phone doesn't sync automatically because I didn't want it to, I've purposefully set it on iTunes to sync manually. I do it by left clicking on where my phone shows there and in the page that comes up I click Sync. If you want it to operate automatically then you need to set it to do so. You have that option by clicking on EDIT at the top left of itunes - then PREFERENCES - DEVICES and uncheck 'prevent devices from syncing automatically'. There may also be something to click on the phone page to sync automatically.
    For the 'conflict' issue I refer you to this discussion where others have already offered advice.
    Good luck with it Janice, and again, let me know how you get on.

  • If someone messages my iphone 6 with the new quick video option when I get it I do not get the option to keep. Therefore it never vanishes. If I send a quick message video to them it has keep listed below the video on theirs.

    1. Every iPod, since the first generation model back in 2001 (of which I am proud to be an original owner) has always scratched on all surfaces – front, back, you name it, but basically everything scratches and this is nothing new. If you toss your shiny new cell phone into your pocket with your car keys it is also bound to be scratched. Just because the iPod costs about ten times more than your cell phone doesn't mean that the iPod is scratch-proof or will stop a bullet.
    If you go out and buy a brand new, scratchless BMW are you going to expect it to never get a scratch or fingerprint on it? Excuse me, but get real or get a case for it.
    2. Transferring video to the iPod was meant to be "easy" for videos that you have purchased over iTunes. It gets more complicated when you want to "back up" your DVDs or avi files that you have on your computer. Unfortunately, QuickTime Pro is not the fastest option for converting to m4v format. There are dozens of applications out there that will rip your DVDs to your hard drive and a handful more which will take this file and convert it to an iPod-friendly format.
    3. It's possible to use your iPod with more than one computer without it being erased. When you connect the iPod to a computer which isn't the first one you used it with, it will say that the iTunes library is not the same one on your iPod and whether or not you want to overwrite the iPod. Obviously you can click no. In the iPod's preferences (found in iTunes), click "manually transfer songs and playlists". You can now take single songs or entire albums from your secondary computer and put them on your iPod.

  • I want to add refworks grabit to my tool bar, when I try to install for firefox it won' t let me this is what I get: HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found The page you a

    this is the complete error I get. I just installed firefox so that I can use this feature and now it is useless.
    Error Summary
    HTTP Error 404.3 - Not Found
    The page you are requesting cannot be served because of the extension configuration. If the page is a script, add a handler. If the file should be downloaded, add a MIME map.
    Detailed Error Information
    Module StaticFileModule
    Notification ExecuteRequestHandler
    Handler StaticFile
    Error Code 0x80070032
    Requested URL http://www.refworks.com:80/refgrabit/install.xpi
    Physical Path E:\RefGrabIt\install.xpi
    Logon Method Anonymous
    Logon User Anonymous
    Failed Request Tracing Log Directory C:\inetpub\logs\FailedReqLogFiles
    Most likely causes:
    It is possible that a handler mapping is missing. By default, the static file handler processes all content.
    The feature you are trying to use may not be installed.
    The appropriate MIME map is not enabled for the Web site or application. (Warning: Do not create a MIME map for content that users should not download, such as .ASPX pages or .config files.)
    If ASP.NET is not installed.
    Things you can try:
    In system.webServer/handlers:
    Ensure that the expected handler for the current page is mapped.
    Pay extra attention to preconditions (for example, runtimeVersion, pipelineMode, bitness) and compare them to the settings for your application pool.
    Pay extra attention to typographical errors in the expected handler line.
    Please verify that the feature you are trying to use is installed.
    Verify that the MIME map is enabled or add the MIME map for the Web site using the command-line tool appcmd.exe.
    To set a MIME type, use the following syntax: %SystemRoot%\windows\system32\inetsrv\appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='string',mimeType='string']
    The variable fileExtension string is the file name extension and the variable mimeType string is the file type description.
    For example, to add a MIME map for a file which has the extension ".xyz": appcmd set config /section:staticContent /+[fileExtension='.xyz',mimeType='text/plain']
    Warning: Ensure that this MIME mapping is needed for your Web server before adding it to the list. Configuration files such as .CONFIG or dynamic scripting pages such as .ASP or .ASPX, should not be downloaded directly and should always be processed through a handler. Other files such as database files or those used to store configuration, like .XML or .MDF, are sometimes used to store configuration information. Determine if clients can download these file types before enabling them.
    Install ASP.NET.
    Create a tracing rule to track failed requests for this HTTP status code. For more information about creating a tracing rule for failed requests, click here.
    Links and More Information This error occurs when the file extension of the requested URL is for a MIME type that is not configured on the server. You can add a MIME type for the file extension for files that are not dynamic scripting pages, database, or configuration files. Process those file types using a handler. You should not allows direct downloads of dynamic scripting pages, database or configuration files.

    That file might have moved to a different location on the server. I think you'll need to check with RefWorks support or your local IT department on why the install page links do not work.

  • I have an iPad 2 and the newest apple tv. I do not get the option on my iPad to mirror on AirPlay. I've tried all the suggestions I've seen. Does anyone have a new idea?

    I have an iPad 2 and the newest apple tv. I do not get the option to turn mirroring on in the AirPlay function. I have tried the suggestions I've seen on here so far, but nothing has worked. Has anyone come up with a fix to this problem?

    Your Apple TV and iOS device (iPad) need to be on the same network subnet.  If they are you can verify when playing that the ATV is set as the output device by clicking the icon to the the right of the fast-forwrd button.  Or you can double-click the home button and swipe left twice to see this.
