Hi,
I have less dedicated video memory in HD4000 than HD3000, I would like to know why it has been reduced by 4 times in a newer chip.
Acer Aspire 5750:
memory: 8GB
HD3000
Total available Memory: 1760MB
Dedicated Video Memory: 128MB
Shared System Memory: 1632MB
Acer Aspire E1-571:
Memory: 4GB
HD4000
Total available Graphics Memory: 1792MB
Dedicated Video memory: 32MB
Shared System Memory: 1760MB
I am aware that the dedicated memory can not be increased due to BIOS restrictions but I would like to hear an explanation as to why from someone more experienced, Thanks in advance.

@ brummyfan, Could you check to see what the Video Memory settings are in the BIOS of your systems?
Also, what OS are you running on your systems? And finally, what versions of Intel HD Graphics drivers are you using.

Hi Robert_U, Thanks for the response, I have 128MB showing in BIOS (HD3000 running Windows 7).
64MB showing in BIOS (HD4000 running Windows 8.1)
Acer Aspire 5750
HD3000- Driver Version:9.17.10.3347
Acer Aspire E1-571:

I also have the AU Optronics B156XW02 v6 screen in both systems.
