Shared memory

On a system with 448 MB of physical memory, how much of it is shared with a 64 MB video card? I have a computer that I am restoring for a friend. After recovery of the physical memory was only 44 MB. I have cleared CMOS and still have left, critical 103.28. What else can I check or do?

Until I'm your last post, I ran a memory diagnostic, including all components from the motherboard. After all the test... At the request of the owners, I also installed 2 GB (2 X 1 GB) memory and retested.  Passed all tests. The video card will take upwards of 64 to 256 MB. After meeting the owner, he is so satisfied.
Thanks Mike Mike another

    Hello

    This could be confusing, but this isn't a problem.
    Shared memory is controlled by the graphics driver and the driver affects the part of the main memory to the memory of the graphics card ONLY if its required by a running application.

    The Dxdiag shows you how much RAM could be shared and value of memory in the quizzes you shared memory which is used and who is in the game right now.

    I have an A660/07R y at - there a way to change the system memory that is shared on this subject, he has a card geforce 350 m 3d mink?

    Hey Buddy,

    Shared memory quantity can't be changed because it will be controlled automatically.

    But I m wondering why you ask for this as far as I know the Satellite A660 with nVidia GT350M card has own graphic memory (1 GB). This memory will be the only graphics card.

  • Satellite A300D-126 - how to set shared memory?

    Hello!

    A month ago I bought 4 GB of RAM (2x2gb) and I got Windows 7 as operating system.
    My RAM memory is automatically extended to my grafic card (from 256 to more than 1,500 then) and everything worked fine...

    As I could not find the driver for the camera for Win 7, I decided to go back to Win XP and so I did.
    Now, my graphics card is 256 MB and memory system 3.25 GB of RAM. All my drivers are up to date.
    I don't know how to set up shared memory...

    In the BIOS there is no option for it, and I can't update the BIOS when I download the new version...

    Please give me an idea to try out! ... TNX!

    Hello!

    The reason why you can use the entire 4 GB of RAM of the t is the reason why you are using Windows XP or let's say a 32 bit OS. On 32 bit OS it is limitation of memory and so t may be used more than 3.25 GB of RAM. If you want to learn more about this limitation please read this article:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB82022E0000R01.htm

    Furthermore there is no BIOS option to set the graphics memory. It also depends on the limit of 4 GB and the size of the graphic RAM will solve automatically.

  • Satellite Pro L850 - i5 3210 M shared memory allocation

    Hello

    I am a happy owner of this laptop great and I added an extra RAM to consider to 8 GB.

    All data sheets on the State of sites detailing the gpu that can be assigned up to 1.7 GB of memory share.

    Previous experience from other computers is that this amount of memory is impaired in the BIOS settings, but I don't see any option in the latest BIOS 1.60.

    Obviously theres a lot of RAM to give to the GPU, but I do not see how to assign. The i5 chips allocate dynamically once Windows is running or the BIOS is missing this setting?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hello

    Shared memory is controlled by the graphics driver and it cannot be controlled manually if running applications needs some shared memory, the pilot would have set this value automatically.

    And if do made 256 will have a good effect specialty for the games or not?

    It's all thanks. :]

    Hello!

    If you now 800 MB shared memory, you have quite 928 MB memory graphics.

    A dedicated video memory 256 MB upgrade is not possible because the graphics card is soldered on the motherboard and t can be exchanged. Who you mans can only increase the total available graphics memory, with more RAM.

    Hello

    Shared memory cannot be assigned manually.
    Everything is controlled by the graphics card driver it assigns and automatically share memory to graphics card memory

    Memory will be affected ONLY if it of necessary it means that if running applications n t need more graphics memory then the graphics card driver not be assigned more than necessary!

  • Satellite L40-170: Video shared memory question

    Hello

    I use Windows XP and most of the time that I have more than enough free RAM.

    I wanted to know where I can see how much memory is allocated for the process of video and possibly increase it?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    As far as I know the graphics driver automatically assigns the shared memory.
    You have the Intel GL960 GPU. I'm wrong

    In this case the Intel reader control shared together memory and you will not be able to manually change

    Best regards

  • increase ram 2 gb 6 GB shared memory does not increase

    I upgraded my ram that 2 GB to 6 GB but shared memory does not increase

    There are limits to the amount of memory can be used for shared graphics.

    Generally, configuring shared memory allocation is done in the BIOS.

  • ESXi Shared memory of commom and UCS B200M2

    I vSphere 4.x environment to IBM 3650 and half B200M2 (a group consisting of the 3650 and a group consisting of the B200M2).  IBM machines are 2 socket quad core with 34 GB of memory and Cisco are 2 Socket 6 core with 48 GB of memory.  Workloads on IBM and Cisco ESXi hosts are the same.  For most of 2008 and Windows 2003 machines.  On IBM machines, I move 1 GB, 2 GB of shared memory (common shared memory - amount of memory that is shared by all virtual machines powered and vSphere services on host machine) on each ESXi host.  On Cisco machines, I get around 15 MB on each ESXi host. Considering that it is one of the great features of VMware (sharing of memory) why is there such a huge disparity between the machines?  Is it because the Cisco blades NUMA machines?  Is there a setting I'm missing?  It's a huge difference.  I don't regret getting the UCS stuff I like it but it is the big novelty of the VMware that does not work with the UCS.

  • What is shared memory?

    Hello, I was looking at my system information in windows 7 and he said: I have shared memory of 4 GB, could someone tell me what shared memory means?

    Means generally that you have 4 GB of memory which is used by the chip graphic and other materials of sys.

    Usually on a 32 bit version of win about 3 GB would be available for use

  • "ORA-04031: unable to allocate shared memory..." with the parameter 'ddltxt_ knglddl '.

    Hi experts.

    Exadata, RAC DBMS EE 11.2.0.3.22, downstream from DB1 to DB2 replication on the same server.

    Maintenance of DB1 with DB rebound before a problem occurred.

    AMM on target DB.

    Original values:

    • memory_target - 6 GB
    • STREAMS_POOL_SIZE - 2GB

    ORA-04031: could not allocate 17859792 bytes of shared memory ('pool of water', 'unknown object', 'capture shared','ddltxt_knglddl' ") error trying to start the capture process.

    As in " " Note: 1521925.1 " ORA-4031 Troubleshooter" total memory and streams_pool_size rose:

    • memory_target - 2 GB plus 8 GB
    • STREAMS_POOL_SIZE - 128 M PLUS 2,125 GB. No possibility of increase of more than + 128 M

    Same error when starting capture.

    SR on created MOS. Nothing so far.

    Please advice. All thoughts are welcome.

    Thanks in advance for loans to help.

    Kind regards

    Problem solved.

    Error reported a memory of 17859792 bytes. Increase the memory up to 12 GB, configuration of different sizes for streams_pool_size has not solved a problem.

    Analysis of pieces of free memory shown the biggest chunk of size in less than 17859792 bytes.

    After reset sga_max_size (or updated grater value than 8 GB) problem has been resolved. Looks like it was related to the size of granule. With size of granule sga_max_size > 8 GB has increased from 16 MB to 32 MB.
