Disabling onboard video

[MrZucchiniHead]

right click on my computer, click "porperties" click device manager, then find display adapters and disable the onboard video and enable your new video card, thats what i had to do with my dell's onboard video.

Windows uses available RAM as well. Are you sure that it's onboard using the RAM instead of Windows?

Yes I'm positive that its the onboard video thats sucking up the ram.

right click on my computer, click "porperties" click device manager, then find display adapters and disable the onboard video and enable your new video card, thats what i had to do with my dell's onboard video.

I've tried that and it did nothing to free up the remaining 32 MB of ram.
480/512 still.

He said that in the BIOS, there wasn't an option to disable onboard video.

Read the post below yours. The device manager in windows and the BIOS are two different things..


after re-reading my post, I understand that i wasnt too clear on what I was trying to say. so maybe you got confused, sorry.
