    I have a Vostro 1400 with X3100 and currently its set to use 8MB of my 2GB. I've read that the X3100 can take up to 384MB, but in any case 8MB couldn't possibly be the max. I went through the BIOS and couldn't find anywhere to change it, is it even possible?

    The X3100 is an Intel integrated graphics, I want to allocate more of my RAM for it to use.
