Video Memory
The computer does not have dedicated video memory. The video memory
available on your computer is configured in two modes of operation.
VGA Shared Memory
This is the pre-allocated memory size for VGA compatibility. This is fixed
in the BIOS at 32MB (see page
5 - 11 ). This memory is allocated from your
system memory e.g. if you computer has 256MB of memory (RAM), then
32MB will be allocated to video leaving the system with 224MB of RAM.
Dynamic Video Memory Technology
Intel
®
DVMT automatically and dynamically allocates as much (up to
64MB) system memory (RAM) as needed to the video system (the video
driver must be installed - see
“What to Install” on page 4 - 2 ). DVMT
returns whatever memory is no longer needed to the operating system.
System Memory Maximum Memory Allocated for Graphics by DVMT
0MB - 127MB Not Supported
128 MB - 255MB 32MB
256MB - Maximum Memory 64MB
DVMT Notes
DVMT is not user-con-
figurable.
DVMT is not local vid-
eo memory.
DVMT will not function
in MS-DOS. DOS uses
the legacy memory in-
dicated.
