Changing Video Memory Size

The computer's main memory is dynamically shared with the video RAM (VRAM). You can decrease the system's VRAM or

increase it for graphic-intensive applications.

Press the Right Arrow key to select the Advanced tab.

Press the Down Arrow key to select UMA Video Memory Size, and press Enter. A window appears with a

list of memory size options.

Press the Up Arrow or Down Arrow keys to select a memory size, and press Enter.

Select Save and Exit by pressing the F10 key. The Setup Confirmation window appears.

Make sure Yes is selected, and press Enter. The computer automatically restarts.

To check the video memory size

Click Start, and then All Programs.

Point to Sony Notebook Setup, and click Sony Notebook Setup from the submenu. The Sony Notebook Setup

window appears.
