    I just upgraded my laptop to 1gig of memory, so i figured why not make the video memory to 128mb since i got many extra to spare. So if anyone can tell me if it is possible to change it to 128mb memory please do so. thank you in advance

    I believe she owns the the thin and light model the 3225. If you go into the bios there should be a tab to increase the video memory, if I'm not mistaken I thought you could only get 64mb of shared memory.

    xin,
    Have you tried updating the bios. There might be a bios update for your notebook.
