Memory
Graphics memory is shared with system memory. Graphics memory usage
varies depending on the amount of system memory installed, BIOS settings,
operating system, and system load. 32 MB is pre-allocated for graphics use at
system boot time. Additional memory can be allocated at boot time by the BIOS
for PAVP (Protected Audio Video Playback) support for playback of protected
video content. For Vista, use of PAVP heavy mode preallocates an additional
96MB.
Additional memory is allocated for graphics as needed using Intel's Dynamic
Video Memory Technology (DVMT), to provide an optimal balance between
graphics and system memory use.
