Decrease in integrated graphics memory

[sidsharma2201]

Hello,
I am using GA G41MT-S2. It has intel G41 express chipset dedicated to onboard graphics.
When earlier i purchased it CPUZ iwas showing graphic memory as 1024 MB. But now its 781 MB.
I reset the bios but still same result. HELP ME!!!!!
i m using win 7 32-bit....

Integrated graphics like that will use varying amounts of memory depending on what programs you have active. If you have updated graphics drivers since then (by updating manually or through Windows Update) it could have changed settings.

Either way, it's actually nothing to worry about.

Edit: Also, please do not post multiple threads on the same subject. It's bad etiquette and clutters up our forums. Thank you.

Hello and welcome to the forums
I don't think there is anything wrong. Did you notice any decrease in performance ?

windows 7 decreases the amount of available graphics memory,as the o.s itself requires certain dedicated amount of graphics memory for it to run.
