    Solved! how to increase dedicated VRAM with a laptop of 2GB RAM

    I assume that the OP's laptop has something like the Intel integrated graphics. Still, without knowing the full specs of the system, it's hard to even make any kind of suggestions. Typically the integrated graphics will automatically adjust to what it needs, but, we'd need to know more.

    intel (r) pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz how much ram can I install?

    Solved! Logitech G430 Mic Volume Issue

    To clarify, the mic shows up under both Playback and Recording, almost as if the OS was treating it as two separate devices. Windows Settings -> System -> Sound -> Related Settings -> Sound Control Panel The only reason I even knew to look there was due to a number of comments I'd read (and...

    I need help!!! This is the weirdest thing I have ever experienced!

    This reminds me of an ex-gf's all-in-one system. The symptoms were somewhat like what your screenshots show. In her case, it was the graphics card. Since it was an all-in-one, it used a laptop type of graphics card, and was replaceable. Getting another graphics card of the same type fixed...

    What is the best daily routine to learn C#?
