CRT/LCD monitor, or both. The configuration options are: [LCD & CRT] [LCD] [CRT]
Installed Memory [128 MB] (display field)
This field displays the amount of extended memory as detected by the system. Unfortunately, this will
not tell you how much is onboard and how much is added to the SO-DIMM socket. You must visually
inspect the SO-DIMM socket if you are considering expanding your memory. You cannot make changes
to this field. This is a display only field.
Video RAM Size [16 MB]
This field allows you to set the amount of memory allocated to the onboard graphics. The built-in
graphics utilizes a shared memory architecture. This means that the graphics chip does not have its own
video memory but instead borrows some memory from the system memory. You can increase the amount
of memory allocated to the graphics chip to improve graphics performance if you have enough system
memory available. The configuration options are: [8MB] [16MB] [32MB]
