My 6200LE GPU [urgent] by Nathan on 07-13-2006 at 07:16 PM

Ok guys,

I have a nVidia 6200LE and its got 64mb onboard and 256mb with shared ram. At the moment with the nVidia drivers installed its only recognizing128mb This is annyoing cos most games are reeeallly slow.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Nathan

Install the absolute, latest, bleeding-edge drivers you can from NVidia, and see if it's still happening. If so, then you may be better off here ;)

I am installing the newest one. Which I think I already have ;)

Chances are it's only using 128 because the other ram on your computer is being used by other processes or something.

If I were you, I'd get a decent card that actually has at least 128mb onboard RAM, boards with shared RAM are terrible.

Well, I have updated the drivers and no joy. And I have 1gb so :/

What sort of games are you trying to play?


RE: My 6200LE GPU [urgent] by Nathan on 07-14-2006 at 11:25 AM

Need for Speed Most wanted, Diablo 2


RE: My 6200LE GPU [urgent] by Chestah on 07-14-2006 at 11:27 AM

Well i know NFSMW requires a little bit of Graphics power - maybe your card just isn't powerful enough to run it?

Well, I know someone who has the same gpu as me and it works great for him :S

Maybe hes turned down the graphics level inside of the game?
RE: My 6200LE GPU [urgent] by Nathan on 07-14-2006 at 12:03 PM

Well, I have done that :P and it works ok but as soon as i turn up the resolution it slows downlo a lot

EDIT: When I try to run Diablo 2 it now comes up this:

Try installing OmegaDrivers ;)

Also, check your BIOS configuration to see if your GPU is allowed to use all the memory it can.


RE: My 6200LE GPU [urgent] by Nathan on 07-14-2006 at 12:48 PM

My PC has protected BIOS :@ so i cant do anything with it :(

Same GPU doesn't mean same card, and even then, the entire system setup affects performance, it's very interdependant.
