Display driver IGFX has stopped working and has recovered

Display driver IGFX has stopped working and has recovered is the problem that I am having. I know that this is because I am over tasking my display driver and I thinks its because of how little ram I have for my graphics card.

Here is all my system information. I know I have two Gigs of Ram but only 224MB are for my graphics. Out side of games I never use more than 1 gig of Ram so can I give more ram to my graphic or is there anything else I can do to make my computer better.

Re: Display driver IGFX has stopped working and has recovered

Well, these are integrated graphics so you won't get any graphically intense games that work. And i don't think there is a way to make integrated graphics use more RAM. What games are you playing when this error occurres?

Re: Display driver IGFX has stopped working and has recovered

Like floop said, intel graphics are made for stuff such as browsing the internet, not games. Maybe old games like starcraft, warcraft 3 and diablo 2 but that is about it.
