Integrated Graphics Subsystem
The total memory allocation is determined by the amount of system memory installed in a
system, along with the BIOS settings, operating system, and system load. Table 6-1 shows the
pre-allocation memory amounts.
System memory that has been pre-allocated is not seen by the operating system, which will
report the total amount of memory installed
less
the amount of pre-allocated memory.
Systems running Windows Vista or Windows 7 use Protected Audio Video Path (PAVP) to
ensure smooth playback of high-definition video by off-loading video decoding from the
processor to the integrated graphics controller. BIOS can allocate addtional memory for PAVP,
which can be set through RBSU to run in Lite mode (default) or in Heavy mode. Table 6-2 shows
the PAVP memory usage for Windows Vista and Windows 7.
NOTES:
Dedicated Video Memory (memory owned and locked for graphics use and reported by the OS):
PAVP Lite setting = 32 MB
PAVP Heavy setting = 122 MB
System Video Memory (memory locked and dedicated for gtraphics use):
PAVP Lite setting = 96 MB
PAVP Heavy setting = 6 MB
