Hello,

I recently changed the motherboard of my desktop PC and I have a little problem:
In the manual, it says that the maximum memory of the integrated graphics card is 1759 MB, but in my configuration, it is only 256 MB even though I have the latest driver...
I am using Windows XP SP3 as the operating system with 2 GB of RAM.
Can someone tell me how to get this graphics capacity?

Sorry for my French.

    The total size is 1759 MB but you have 256 MB dedicated.

    For example, on my current 560 Ti, the total graphics memory is 4 GB but there is 1 GB dedicated... for games, graphic applications ;)

    Nothing unusual on your PC.

      Thank you, but here's what I found on the Biostar website:
      * Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500. (Intel® X4500)
      * Pixel Shader 4.0, DirectX 10
      * Supports RGB with max. resolution 2048 x 1536@75Hz
      * Max. shared memory 1759MB *
      * * The Max shared memory size will be available only when 4GB
      memory or more installed on Motherboard under the 64-bit OS.

    * * The maximum shared memory size will be available only when 4GB or more of physical memory is installed on the motherboard under a 64-bit operating system.

    -> Windows XP Sp3 = 32-bit version.

    But I don't see the connection, normally you should be able to use it but it's just shared memory... as long as you don't game on it, it's fine ^^
