my laptop info:
model - Dell E6430
i5 3rd gen
intel HD 4000
8gb ram
Windows 8.1 pro

Approx total graphics memory is 1792 mb however dedicated video and system memory is 0 mb.

Can anyone help me on this please?
 
just to further explain. the dedicated video memory is the memory of a dedicated gpu, a graphics card, not the one built-in to your cpu.
think of it as a phone that has a built-in memory, and the dedicated memory is the memory card that you have to buy and put in separately. so if you dont have that memory card, then all you have is the built-in memory. hope that clears it up somehow

but if your laptop did not come with a dedicated gpu then chances are you wont be able to have one unless you purchase a new laptop.
