I'm currently using Workstation 10, and I've been trying to figure out how to add more VRAM to the guest than the maximum 128MB default that VMware allows. I've read about other people successfully getting 1GB VRAM, and I've read the instructions on this page, however any of the resolutions I try do not divide evenly by 64 KB (65536 bytes.)
1280 x 720 x 4 = 3686400 / 65536 = 56.25
1600 x 900 x 4 = 5760000 / 65536 = 87.890625
1920 x 1080 x 4 = 8294400 / 65536 = 126.5625
How should I go about this to get any VRAM above 128 MB? And yes I know it doesn't use my video card's dedicated RAM, it's shared with the virtual RAM.
Is there another method to force VMware to reserve 1GB VRAM for the guest? Or am I doing something wrong? I haven't tried this yet as my resolutions do not divide evenly.
Any help will be appreciated, thank you.
P.S. If I could get at least 512MB VRAM, that would be great.
