vram

Hello Everyone I tried to search here to see if anyone faced similar issues but in DirectX Diagnostic tool , it shows Display Memory (VRAM) 0 MB while Total memory is 18428 MB DirectX 12 Is this something expected ? I'm trying to run COH 3 I would say that I can ignore the message but...

Hi everyone, I'm planning to buy my first-ever Mac, and I'm looking at the 15-inch M4 MacBook Air. I'm only unsure about a few things - mainly the RAM configuration: 16GB or 24GB? I'm not planning to use Parallels as my main tool, but I'd like to run it occasionally (standard edition) to...

I'm having trouble running the program because I don't have VRAM. This program is a very important part of my job.

I must be misunderstanding something? I'm looking to run Parallels Desktop Pro on Mac but if you go here https://www.parallels.com/products/desktop/buy/?full and click on the 'upgrade' tab it specifies that i needs 128 GB vRAM for each VM and 32 VCPUs! Well my old MacBook pro 2018 Intel only has...

Hello! Whenever I try to boot up the game using Parallels on my Mac, I get the following message: "Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition minimum specification recommends at least 1GB of dedicated VRAM. This computer does not meet that requirement". Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Thank you

Hi I noticed, there is 0 mb of VRAM available on my VM. How can I change that? I wanted to play some games (e.g. Sims 2 - should be possible to make it work on Win11, though), but I experience graphical issues. See DxDiag for info. Thanks!

Hi all, I had a very hard time figuring out how to increase the RAM allocation to my VM, but I finally did it. I'd like to share the solution and request for Parallels to make this easier. I'm emulating MacOS inside an M1 MacBook Pro. Upgrade license to Parallels Pro Click Apple menu > About...

Hello, I am trying out the demo version of Parallels Desktop Pro 19.2.0. I see the maximum amount of VRAM is 3GB only and it looks like it cannot be changed. If it can, please let us know. If not, can you please increase it to a larger amount for both Pro and non-Pro versions?

I am having trouble playing a game in the virtual machine. The first time I ran parallels, I updated the Microsoft software to the latest release and downloaded steam. The program was laggy right from the start, every mouse movement was delayed on the parallels desktop. Once I had a game, I went...

Host: MacOS Monterey 12.0.1 VM: MacOS Monterey 12.1 PD Version: 17.1.1-51537 How can i do?

I am using the latest version of Parallels 15 and I would like to game on Windows 10 using my Bootcamp image via Parallels. Lately, however, games refuse to start. When I try to play Forza Horizon 4, I get an error message saying that my Graphics card doesn't support DX12 although when running...

I am confused on how memory allocation works. I am using a 2018 15" Macbook Pro with 16GB of system RAM and 4GB of vRAM. I understand from KB124575 that the APIs used by MacOS do not allow applications to directly request vRAM. I frequently run parallels alongside MATLAB, so memory management...

I have a new MacBook Pro with High Sierra OS installed, but for my internship I need to be able to install and use Final Cut Pro 7, which can only be used with Sierra OS and earlier. So, I installed the Sierra OS using Parallels and have been trying to download Final Cut, but keep running into...

See attached screen-shot. If I increase the video (graphics card) memory (in hope to get better performance in Windows 10), Parallels says I should limit it to 1GB... Is there a reason why? I mean I have 8GB's worth of Video-RAM in my iMac. Please comment Team Parallels. Also, please confirm...

Hello Parallels Forum, Might you enlighten me on the changes to "recommended" and "required" for VRAM in Guest OS's? This is universally for any guest os. I am trying to understand the changes in Parallels 13. In the past the "recommended" memory for Graphics was much high. In Parallels 13 it...
