i just purchased a dell inspiron 3646 that has a pentium j2900 quad core and intel hd graphics. However it is only running 32mb of dedicated video ram! i need at least 64mb! first i checked dell's specification PDF and their claiming it comes with 64-256mb stock! then i checked my bios, (because dell's website was no help) and there is no option to set video ram. I am an experienced computer dude and have not ran into this issue before. Please help because this is my favorite pc.
 
According to this thread http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2540766/dedicated-video-ram.html with the same CPU the system has 32MB dedicated RAM for video. Since you can't set the video RAM in the BIOS, you have what you have, unless there is an Advanced BIOS mode you can get to in your system that gives you more options.

That system does not have any expansion slots, it's basically a laptop system in a desktop case.
