Hi @BBBYSWAE,

 

Thank you for showing your interest in HP Support Forums.

I see from the post that you would like to increase the system reserved Video RAM. I'll try my best to help you with this,

 

Could you provide me with the Product number of the computer and the Operating system installed on the PC? (Ensure you do not share any of your personal information such as serial, phone number, email ID, etc...) http://hp.care/2bygf7l

Did this happen after upgrading to Windows 10? If so, I would suggest you revert back to Windows 8.1?

 

HP Pc’s uses a customized BIOS setting (Tattooed BIOS) of which some features including overclocking and increasing the VRAM are locked.

This is done in the best interest of safeguarding the PC for the optimal performance and not to cause any extensive component failure.

 

To conclude, the VRAM on your PC is already shared with a specific value and it's locked and cannot be changed.

 

Hope the information shared will help you. Please share for more.

 

Regards
