Looking around the net, couldn't find much on this.
I also addressed this matter on Lenovo forums, did not receive much help. Here is the thread if anybody's interested. https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo...-modify-integrated-graphics-vram/td-p/3298784
I have 2 laptops. Their low end,so no...i'm not rich
One is a Lenovo OEM B590 with i3 cpu integrated graphics and 4gb of ram.
Noticed the integrated intel graphs run at a 64mb memory by default. You can find many tutorials out there on how to change that. Just take from ram and add to vram. I wanted to boost to 1gb the vram. you're supposed to go into bios and look there for some kind of setting. Did not find any . Strange. I tooked the battery out and reset the bios to default. Still no option. it looks the same.
However, i looked into my other laptop. An Acer...don't know the model. I remember when i got it 2 years ago, at the store the guy showed me the dedicated graphics card a 810 GT M . it was mentioned in the bios. Went home installed windows, never bothered to look in to the bios ever since.
yesterday i did. And i could not find anything mentioned about a Dedicated Card in there. TRUST me,it's just not there.
So my question is this: Can a Windows Install modify the BIOS ? Can the bios look different after you installed windows and some drivers ?
As far as i know,i think it's impossible. But look, My bios on the Acer looks different than the day i purchased it!
