Changing the amount of video RAM on your system is usually necessary only after the installation of a new video card. It’s a good idea to flash (or update) your BIOS after installing new hardware to ensure maximum compatibility, but consider that a second step. The BIOS on most HP Pavilion computers allows you a bit of flexibility with regard to your video settings and the amount of available video cache; if you can’t adjust these settings to your preference, you’ll need to update the BIOS to the most recent version.
