Hey there, I know I'm kind of posting on the wrong site here, the Toshiba forums are more appropiate, however, I don't remember my password and can't be bothered, plus I like this site, it's easy and you get emails when you get answers.

Anyway, I recently boosted the RAM in my Toshiba Satellite A60 from 512MB to 1GB via the 200-pin SO DIMM expansion on the back. I've got to say, it's running so much smoother, like it's new again.

One quick question though, in the manual it says, with regards to VRAM, something like it has 64MB, or 128MB depending on RAM. The graphics are the worst part of my laptop, so if I can poke it to make it use an extra 64MB of my new RAM as VRAM I'd happily do it, as aware as I am that integrated VRAM is bad (I'm stuck with it anyway).

I thought installing the new RAM might've done it automatically but the system still says it has 64MB of VRAM. Is there anyway of doing it myself?

Thanks for reading.

Checking the systems BIOS seems a logical place to start. Usually all IRQ and other such settings are controlled there.

Pressing 'F2' or 'F8' on most laptops is the norm, however look for the message as your computer first boots up. If in doubt 'button bash' either of these keys when you turn it on and you should get in.
