A31 Video

#1 Post by jrv331 » Mon Sep 24, 2007 9:34 am

I searched but did not see the answer. When I look at my video properties screen it says I have 16mb ram however the the specs from IBM say I should have 32mb. Which is correct?
Thanks
John

would it be possible to add the rest of the type / model id to your signature, the next 3 letters/numbers e.g. 2652 "2AG".
I believe 2652 TPs came with 16 or 32 VRAM, that much I can confirm. BUT, AFIK the Radeon 7500 was 64 VRAM :?

Sorry its C4U. In reading the specs the A31 had 32 video ram and the A31P had the 64.
Thanks

According to the tawbook.pdf file, the 2652-C4U has 16MB of video memory. Some A31 systems did come with 32MB but those had 15" SXGA+ screens. As yours seems to have the XGA panel, then only 16MB is on-board. The A31p systems with the UXGA displays do have 64MB.
