Ok so, I heard in BIOS settings there's an option to increase virtual memory. My bios is completely different from everyone else's and there are a lot of grayed out options. All my settings are different and I can't find the vram option. Is there a way to change virtual memory?
I have 16 gigabytes of ram but sadly I only have like 128 megabytes

I think you are asking about dedicated VRAM (video graphics RAM), not virtual memory.
No you can't change in BIOS, system will work out itself and assign available system RAM to video RAM when required, up to max limit.
I don't know what is your bs0xx (xx must be from 00 to 99) therfore I can't say the max number but your machine has 16GB it should be able to assign to the max limit very easy.
Back to vurtual memory. System will normally allocate around 2 to 2.5 times of system RAM on HDD. We don't need to worry about. If you wish to change, please try
