Memory graphics system

I have an acer ARE-1-420 with amd A4-5000, AMD Radeon HD 8330 with 512 MB graphic memory and 4 GB of RAM. I want to ask can I improve my graphics system in 1024 MB memory? has I have to increase my RAM to 8 GB? or put it on BIOS, but I can't find the menu advenced on BIOS. Help, please

Yes, but it's not worth the hassle, you need to find someone to edit your BIOS and their use as risky, you could end up with no work laptop, you actually recommended video memory allocated for the memory installed on your laptop, I suggest you use as it is.

  • Windows 8 will run smoothly on 256 MB memory graphics system?

    Hello

    I have a laptop of HCL

    Processor: Intel Pentium Dual CPU T2390 @1. 86 GHz

    Memory: 2.50 GB (2,37 GB usable)

    DirectX 11

    There is no dedicated graphics card, it has only 256 MB memory graphics system.

    Now, I have installed Windows 8 on this (new installation) and I can see the screen slightly flickering even to stand still. Movement reduced the sweetness away. Any new window that appears is really slow. Scrolling on screen of tiles of windows isn't smooth at all. 720 p or 1080 p videos play at x almost 0.1 or 0.2 x the speed, the sound is good, the video gives the problem (lags the sound).

    I checked the CPU usage in Task Manager, while the very general process running like IE10, File Explorer and an analysis of the system.

    And CPU and disk usage are constantly in the 1990s (RED ZONE). Memory is 35-45%.

    So, I want to know what I can do for a smooth Windows 8 experience? It is the processor or have anything to do with the thing of the graphics card?

    NA

    You ask a hardware too few to do too much.  You have min RAM, GPU and CPU minutes unless.

  • Satellite L500-164 - memory graphics type?

    Hello

    I'm new here. Today, I found the Satellite L500-164. I think it's a very good laptop. Especially the price is good.
    Now, there's an Ati Mobility Radeon 4650 with 1 GB of memory in the L500-164. But my problem is, each site there is another description for the type of memory, sometimes its DDR3, GDDR3 (which is of course preferable) could be. Can you help me with this issue? Do you know what memory graphic type is the L500-164?

    Would be nice if you can help me. (and sorry for my bad English ^^)

    Hello!

    You can try to GPU - Z as Akuma said identify memory.

    But theoretically GDDR3 and DDR3 is the same type of RAM. GDDR3 means * graphics Double data RAM *. So it's just memory specifically designed for use on graphics cards.

    Thus, the graphics card's own memory and doesn t share with system memory.

  • Age of Empires II - "can't initialize graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw.

    Hello

    I have a problem of Age of Empires 2 running on my new computer. Keeps displaying the following error message: "cannot initialize the graphics system. Make sure that your video card and driver are compatible with DirectDraw. "Someone at - it solutions to this? I have already visited many forums and trying different solutions; None of them helped.

    Tried solutions: change the compatibility and as an administrator, switching to 16-bit color, turn off my graphics card, execution of the extension "nostartup" of the game, looking for old patches from Microsoft (which most are now unavailable due to the game being so old). I KNOW that others have been able to get this game to work on the Windows 7 operating system, but with a few other quirks and I KNOW my video card and driver are more than capable of handling this game. Any suggestions?

    System Specs:

    System manufacturer/model number Dell/Studio 540
    Operating system windows 7 home premium 32 bit

    I had the above problem with AOEII:Age of the Kings. My brief spec is Windows 7 Ultimate edition (SP1) and a card nVidia 8600 GT. I did the following (make sure you reboot after each installation):

    Make sure that you are running the latest patch of AOEII:AOK (2. 0 a):

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=35

    Download and install the latest version of DirectX:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=5264

    Download and install the latest nVidia Driver suite. I left the autodetect my card software and reset all my default settings. I also installed the full software suite:

    http://www.nvidia.com/download/index.aspx?lang=en-us

    Finally, right click on the shortcut of AOE and click Properties. Click on the Compatibility tab and select the following:

    -Run this program in compatibility mode - choose Windows XP Service Pack 2 (!) NOT 3!)
    -Disable visual themes
    -Disable the Composition of the Bureau
    -Run this program as an administrator

    One of the above options maybe work on its own, but that's what I had to do to make it work and I tested it after each step.

    Good luck!

  • Age of Empires II crash with error 'can't initialize graphics system' on Windows XP SP3

    Hello world.

    I would like to start by saying that is it supposed to be in section games XP, well that is it has been deliberately redirect here, or there is a bug somewhere in social.answers, so do not blame me: P

    In any case, I decided to install AOEII today. After installing it, I have updated to 2. 0, then I tried to run. It crashed with an error starting with «can't initialize graphics system...» ", with nothing very useful after that. Nothing in the case where the viewer will appear, I have no choice but to click on ok and close the game. This happens right after that it looks like my CRT resolution changes and before the video intro begins.

    I have Windows XP Home Edition SP3, with a nvidia Geforce FX 5500 w / 128 MB of memory onboard (1 GB system). For my graphics card drivers are updated to 175,19, and I just tried to update Direct X end-user running, nothing new in this field.

    If anyone can help, that would be great. (Also, to save us from evil, I already ran DirectDraw diagnosis, but also completely remove and then reinstall my graphic drivers.)

    PS is it just me or there's a lot of people having problems with this game?

    It seems that the installation and launch of the expansion rather than the basic game pack seems to work.

    Thanks for helping anyway, so :)

    For general advice, see troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates.

    The steps described in the second case are a guide to remove everything related to iTunes and then rebuild what is often a good starting point, unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach.

    Review the other boxes and other support documents list to the bottom of the page, in case one of them applies.

    More information area has direct links with the current and recent buildings if you have problems to download, must revert to an older version or want to try the version of iTunes for Windows (64-bit-for old video cards) as a workaround for problems with installation or operation, or compatibility with QuickTime software or a third party.

    Backups of your library and device should be affected by these measures but there are links to backup and recovery advice there.

  • Rollercoaster tycoon 2 "failed to initialize graphics system' on Windows 8

    Hello

    I recently bought a new computer that has Windows 8. I installed Rollercoaster tycoon 2 very well, but when I try to run the game I get a message saying "could not initialize graphics system." I looked at various websites and tried different ways to get the game to run, such as the running in compatibility mode (the game worked fine on Windows 7), reducing the 8 bit 256 colors and decreasing the resolution up to 640 x 480 game. Unfortunately, none of them have made a difference, and I still get the same message every time I try to run the game. Any help or advice on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you very much.

    Well, I just had the same problem, but it was fixed for me when I ran it in Compatibility Mode for Windows 7. As it was not compatible for Windows 8, I just tried every version in turn.

    If Windows 7 CM still does not work, I suggest to try Vista or XP as well.

    I have also don't work in reduced color or resolution, then maybe it will also stop work?

  • Reservation of memory from system resources

    I use monik part of backup tools, and there is a best practice to change the setting of the CPU and the memory at 1500 MHz and 800 MB.

    In the next page of VMware KB, there is a description to change the allocation of memory, only in ESXi 4.1, there is no material cofiguration option > memory.

    http://KB.VMware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US & cmd = displayKC & externalId = 1003501

    But in configuration > system resource allocation, I can set the CPU and memory, is that the same allocaiton memory for the ESXi console?

    On this tab, we have generally fine tune the allocation of resources for this host. But this sentence anyone unless someone has encountered a problem. For the parameters of the ESX host we usually set the value in memory and CPU for the console of any third-party application or service that makes us turn on this host.

    In the case of ESXi, if big it seems people leave just as Norbert has asked to change by a seller of 3rd party app.

    Please refer to this article which contains details about the reservation of memory from system resources

    Hello

    Shared graphics memory is controlled by GPU driver. You cannot add or edit it manually.

    More depends on the Windows OS you use, because the 32-bit system can manage max 3.2 GB of system memory.

    For example:

    * (32 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1214 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1342 MB

    * (64 bit OS) *.
    System memory: 2GB | 4 GB
    Dedicated video memory: 128 MB | 128 MB
    Shared system memory: 702MB | 1631 MB
    TOTAL available graphics memory: 830MB | 1759 MB
