Hi. I've upgraded my RAM to 1Gb.
I understand the onboard Graphics card automatically gets 64mb.
Is there any way to allocate it more RAM ?
I use PaintshoproX with a tablet and I'd like it to be a bit zippier.
Thanks

Buy a graphic card,they are available in AGP or PCI if you
don't have an AGP slot and the newest type PCIx. You can
get 256 MB and that will also allow the 64 MB to go back to
system use.

What options do the motherboard provide? I suggest reading the manual
for the motherboard. This isn't a Operating system feature or function.

Sorry no it's not a tablet PC, it's a desktop PC, WinXP. I use a Graphic
Tablet.

Your integrated graphics will not accept a larger memory allocation.. you
will have to buy a separate video card.. be careful, though, because not all
video cards are compatible with all motherboard types.. it is something of a
minefield out there..
