Why does your sony VAIO laptop not show all its fitted memory?

Most likely, the system is set up to use some of its RAM as Video Memory. Many laptops come with graphics chipsets that are built into the motherboard, and that do not have their own video memory. In these cases, the BIOS can be used to configure how much RAM to use as Video Memory. If you have 1 gigabyte of RAM installed, and the BIOS is configured to use 256 megabytes for Video Memory, your computer may report that you have 768 megabytes of memory.

You most likely have an integrated video card. Integrated video cards do not have their own memory, and use system memory (RAM) for video. Your video card is using 32MB of your ram. On most computers you can change the amount available to video by logging into bios and changing video memory amount.

How do you work with video memory in c?

Video memory is hardware specific. Any c implementation that directly accesses video memory will not be portable. In fact, video memory will probably not be accessible in modern operating systems, because the video driver provides the interface. Also, even the same hardware has different addresses for different modes.It is better to use the OS's API to drive the image.It you must access video memory, and assuming that you can, such as in real mode DOS, you can define a pointer unsigned char *ptr and initialize it to the address of video memory such as ptr = 0xB0000 and then use it ptr[someaddress] = somevalue. Keep in mind that you will probably also need to interface with the hardware registers.It is better to use the OS's API to drive the image.It is better to use the OS's API to drive the image.Am I being clear enough? :-)>
