Hi there, i have upgrade my Vista to Windows 7. every hardware is still the same. i didn't change any. but when i install game PES 2012 which is run correctly in Vista, the game only detect my VRAM is just 64 MB. if i'm not wrong, in Vista the game detect it 128 MB. i'm using Compaq CQ40-108TU, Mobile Intel® 4 Series Express Chipset Family. 4 GB RAM. Window 7 Ultimate 32 bit. and importantly : i've download the latest graphic driver from Compaq and intel of course, but some installer say that can't find the specific hardware.

is there anything way that i could set back my VRAM to 128 MB so i can play the game PES 2012?

thank you

Hi there!

In most cases, the computer manufacturer has already configured the system to use the maximum amount of graphics memory that is possible for your particular computer model. Sometimes you can change these values through BIOS level.

See the following URL for more information:

Check with your computer manufacturer if there are tips on increasing the amount of graphics memory for your computer model.

Additionally, I recommend accessing the list of compatible games for your graphics controller.
