Why is my video memory showing 707 mb on bootcamp?

Here is the summary of what I've done

Maybe there is somebody here who knows?
Thanks

I just got around to reading your other thread, should have done that first, been jumping between things this morning.
Think you are right it wasn't using the 6750M (at least not when you looked at system usage).
And you already have 11.5 driver.
I'm assuming that is uses the built-in video card instead of the AMD Radeon HD 6750M
Although it says that on drivers its only showing 707mb of video memory.
So that could just be the 512mb + shared ram.
It should be showing like 1.5GB of memory if it was using the dedicated video card.
I googled a bit and it's people are saying we can't switch yet but it should be using the dedicated one by default.

Why does my video clip show in the program monitor only when it is playing (the program monitor is blank otherwise)?

I am using WIndows 7 64 bit, and the most recent version of Premiere Pro CC on an I7 machine with 8GB of memory. I have imported a HD .mov clip and placed it on the timeline. When I press 'Play', it shows in the Program Monitor window. When I stop the playing, the window goes blank. I have rendered the clip (it has a yellow bar above it). Even after rendering, the yellow bar remains and the sequence only displays when it is playing. The source monitor has the same behavior.
Not being able to see where I am in a clip is making editing very difficult. I have used Premiere Elements for five years, I have taken the Lynda.com course, so I have some familiarity with the program that suggests that the frame at the point of the CTI should show in the program and source monitors.
What do I need to do to be able to see the frame in the monitors when it isn't playing?
Update: I spent 35 minutes with Tushar in a technical support chat (case number: 0186148124), during which time we deleted the contents of the Media cache folder in C:/Users/Your User Account/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Common file (after using task manager to close coresync32.exe and creativecloud32.exe) and renamed both the Adobe folder and the 8.0 folder in Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/8.0. This didn't get it, but was necessary for the next step:
Going to the File menu, Project Settings, and selecting 'General Settings', Tushar had me change the Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine Software Only (I don't have a GPU accelerator video card yet). I received a warning that all previews would be deleted, which I accepted. That brought the image back to the Program Monitor.
I've posted this for anyone who may experience a similar challenge in the future. Despite a lot of Google searching before I contacted Tech Support, I didn't find anything even close to the description of the problem. I hope this provides that source for future searchers.

Thanks, Ann. As I mentioned in my post, Tushar correctly pointed out that, without a GPU accelerated card (which I don't have - mine is a piece of junk which I will be replacing with a compatible one soon) you must use the software only settings. I had changed my project over to the 'software only' setting, and I still had the problem. The value Tushar added was the procedure for clearing the cache.
What I did originally was a newbie error, no argument. I posted it here for others who may fall in the same hole. Your reply confirms that, without a GPU accelerated card, use the software only settings (sounds so obvious, yet I missed it.....).

Why does the internal memory shows red?

When I connect my iPhone to my computer and I go into the phone itself, the internal memoy bar is in red and shows that I have a little over 1 gig of memory left. Why is it in red? Hasn't been that way except for the last week?

Open iTunes and figure out what is taking up space on the device.
The only reason that one would have for accessing the device via "My Computer" would be to copy pictures taken with the device to the computer.

Why does my mac memory show used 130gb movies, yet i only have 35gb of movies

That would be an issue that you need to discuss with the iTunes/MAS support folks. When you sign into your account on the iTunes app on your computer check your purchase history. There is an invoice there for verything that you have purchased. If there is a question about a purchase listed, there is a link to iTunes Support from the invoice.

Why do my videos still show in my movie icon once they are expired

Once I've watched a rental movie on my ipad and it's expired it still shows in my video icon. I can't delete the. How can I get them out of my videos list?

You are only seeing the History only. It does not take any space on iPad.

Why do some video files show up under music, & some under movies?

I ordered a CD off of iTunes that included bonus material, 4 of which were videos. 3 were music videos, 1 an interview with the artist. The 3 music videos show up at the end of the album in the music part of iTunes, the interview video shows up seperately under movies. Is there any way to manipulate this, so all the videos can be in one place, be it under movies, or music?
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help me out here.

Right click the file and then click get info, go to the options tab, there should be a box which says media type: change this to the option you want.

Why does iChat video preview show a mirror image of the webcam picture?

When I open video preview in iChat on my iMac OS X 10.4.11, the video image I see from my Logitech QuickCam Pro 5000 webcam is a mirror image of what the camera is pointing at(ie printed material can't be read cause it's backwards as in a mirror.)
Is this a function of iChat or of the webcam? And, can it be corrected so a true video image appears instead of the mirror image?

Hello Oceanbeach9
iChat's picture-in-picture and Snapshot is "mirrored" by design.
We are so accustomed to seeing ourselves in the mirror that it looks strange the other way. Your Chat friends and movie clips are normal. Only the preview is mirror-image.
If you plan to post or email a snapshot image, you can change individual snapshots made with iChat by opening the file with Preview and using the Preview > Tools > Flip Horizontal menu command.
You can add iGlasses 2 software iF you really want to change your iSight's image.

Why does my Macbook Air only have 64MB of dedicated video memory

Hello, I created a windows partition on my Macbook Air and after going into my Display settings I see that it only has 64MB of dedicated video memory out of 1696MB. Please tell me how I can fix this problem as I should have much more Dedicated memory from my Macbook air.
Additional INFO: MacBook Air Early 2014 edition, and has Intel 5000.

Hey thanks a lot for the quick reply Loner, however, I'm not really sure what you mean (sorry I'm a bit slow when it comes to computers). I checked out your link, and when I do the same steps as in the link by going into screen resolution> advanced> adapter: it shows Total Available Graphics Memory- 1696MB, and Dedicated Video Memory 64MB, but it only uses 64MB, it doesn't use more when it needs to.
I tried playing GTA 4 on my laptop via bootcamp, and in-game it tells me my laptop is only using 64MB of video memory and the game requires at least 260 or so, and my laptop won't use more (at least I'm pretty sure it is not using more or the game wouldn't give me that mssg).
Again, thanks for your response, and looking forward to what you have to say, or any other that want to chime in Thanks a lot as always.

I just bought photoshop elements 13 last night. Today I am watching tutorial videos to show me how to use it, but the videos are showing me things I don't have. Asking me to click on tabs i don't have. Why is this? Is there another way I can learn? Or is my download messed up and not giving me everything I need?

Got a link showing us which video tutorials you're watching and examples of what's missing in your software?

GPU Monitor Gadget showing below 20% usage of Vmem (video memory) for Gtx550ti

Some time in the past week I noticed sub-par performance in video games - i.e. low frames - and checked my Gtx550ti performance stats using the Windows 7 gadget called "GPU monitor" which I have used for over a year.
The Vmem (video memory) used during playing those games was very low at around 10-15% of the 1gb memory installed on the card.
Monitoring RAM usage during that same time through Windows Task Manager showed that general system RAM usage was increased above its normal use whilst playing those games i.e. I know what percentage of my general system RAM is used when I play those games and that percentage has increased a significant amount.
How do I get my games to use the dedicated video memory on my graphics card instead of my general system RAM again and what would cause this switch of resources to happen?
NOTE: I have not changed any settings, hardware, software or anything and the games I am playing are ones I have played for years with good usage of the Gtx550ti video memory.
It's as if the machine just decided to stop using the cards dedicated video memory and use general system RAM instead.

What exact GTX550ti model is in question?
MSI/Asus/Evga/Gigabyte or any other? For example: MSI GeForce GTX550Ti Cyclone OC.

Do you have Flash installed? Check HD > Library > Internet Plug-Ins
If the Flash Player app is not in the Internet Plug-ins folder, download and install from here.
When you post for help, please state which OS X is installed.
If you aren't sure, click About this Mac from your Apple menu 
Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information.

My computer won't play videos from site like the Daily Show and the CW, but they stopped working last week. I have the newest version of Adobe player. Anyone know why the full videos will not play?

I failed to mention that the sound does play on the videos that are not playing.

Why are my videos showing up in "Recently Added" but not in TV Shows or Movies?

I didn't have a problem adding videos to iTunes for several months, but now videos are not appearing in the right places. For some reason, they appear in the Recently Added playlist, but they are not showing up in the Movies section (which is where they had all gone before). The video plays fine if I play the file from Recently Added.
The files are mp4 format converted with Handbrake, which I have used for a long time without issue.
2011 iMac OSX 10.7.3 & iTunes 10.6.1 (7)
My research into the issue has found that some users experience metadata info missing from files. I ran some of the recommended programs that automatically add metadata to videos, but still had no luck adding. The issue is with every single mp4 file I add, and it just suddenly started.
If I click "Get Info" on a file, they are listed as being sorted as a Movie. If I change it to TV Show or Music Video then click OK, no changes are saved and file goes no where.
I get no Error Message when adding to iTunes.
I hope I have provided enough information. I'm eager to hear your answers!

Update:
Still having issues getting new videos to show in the "Movies" or "TV Shows" categories of iTunes. However, last night I discovered that Home Sharing on my iPad lists the newly imported videos in the Movies category (iPad & Video app). So, the files aren't corrupt or anything like that. It just seems like I need to 'refresh' the Movies page. Is that possible?
Since I can see the files on the iPad now, I want to remove the extra copies of movies I imported. But, since I can only find them in Playlists, how can I delete them?
