Unable to set the maximum dedicated video memory size on BIOS with Windows 10?

[mickael28]

Hi,

I have an HP elitedesk 800 g2 mini PC with an Intel Graphics card 530.

Up until now I was in Windows 7 pro and I had configured the BIOS setting of Video memory size as 512MB under the Advanced section. Then I could to go windows and see that this setting was taken into account as my Dedicated Video Memory - 512MB

I've now upgraded to Windows 10 pro and I just noticed that whatever I put in the BIOS setting (from 32MB up to 512MB is not taking into account when I check once my windows 10 is booted up. It always display the Dedicate Video Memory as 128MB.

I've tried updating my video card drivers but it says that I'm on the latest drivers. Do you know what the problem could be? ie, why Windows 10 pro is not reading the setting from my BIOS and just defaulting to 128MB? Anything that I could try from my end?

Thank you.

Try flashing a newer BIOS.

Sorry, forgot to mention it...

It happened with the original BIOS, so I updated it to the latest and check the latest drivers of the video card as well. Strange thing is that it was working fine before upgrading to Win 10?

I suggested that, thinking windows 10 wasn't out when the old BIOS was made.

Is it working now with the new BIOS?

No, same thing with the new BIOS.

You can choose any option there, from 32MB to 512MB, but windows 10 just displays... dedicated video memory = 128MB :S
