   I've just installed Vista, installed all the drivers and stuff, and then noticed something weird - Vista decided to use half my RAM as shared VRAM. Look at the pic below to see what I'm talking about:

   How do I disable this?

   Hi
   
   Normal for Vista, but it doesn't necessarily use the ram taken from the system if your GFX card uses its own dedicated ram, I loose 1047mb of system ram and my GFX card has 640mb of dedicated ram of its own, but in reality its not used as I still see it allocated to the system unless its needed, its just allocated not used until needed.
