    Hi Middelburg, the 7750G-6645 laptop from 2012 does not support increasing VRAM, you can access some hidden functions with Ctrl+S in BIOS but not for RAM. The only way to increase VRAM is by adding RAM modules. The Acer Aspire 7750G-6645 officially supports up to 8 GB of RAM, as stated by Acer. However, some users have reported successfully upgrading it to 16 GB using two 8 GB DDR3 RAM modules Acer 7750g max ram size. — Acer Community

    The Acer Aspire 7750 is limited to an MBR/Legacy BIOS and does not have the capability to run UEFI BIOS.

    If you have a dedicated graphics card, you cannot increase its VRAM. You'll need to purchase a card with more VRAM.
    Integrated graphics cards use system RAM as VRAM, so increasing the amount of RAM allocated to the graphics card can improve performance, but it also reduces the amount of RAM available for other tasks.
    Virtual memory uses your hard drive as an extension of RAM. While it can help with performance, it's slower than actual RAM, so it's not a replacement for more VRAM.

    Adjusting Virtual Memory (for both integrated and dedicated graphics):
    Open System Properties: Press the Windows key + R, type sysdm.cpl, and press Enter.
    Go to Advanced Tab: In the System Properties window, click the "Advanced" tab.
    Click Performance Settings: Under "Performance," click the "Settings" button.
    Go to Advanced Tab Again: In the Performance Options window, click the "Advanced" tab.
    Change Virtual Memory: Click the "Change" button under "Virtual memory".
    Adjust Virtual Memory Size: You can set a custom size for the paging file (virtual memory).
    Save Changes: Click "OK" to save the changes.

    I hope this helps! If this was useful, please hit 'Yes' or 'Like'! Thanks! 😊
