Many graphic-intensive applications (especially games) require a minimum amount of video memory in order to operate correctly (or even to run at all). So how much video memory does an Intel® chipset-based system with "integrated graphics" have? The answer: it depends. The amount of video memory is dependent upon the amount of pre-allocated memory set for your system plus something called Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT). DVMT, as its name implies, dynamically allocates system memory for use as video memory to ensure the most efficient use of available resources for maximum 2D/3D graphics performance. The amount of video memory allocated depends upon the amount requested by the operating system. When the memory is no longer required, it is returned to the operating system for use by other applications or system functions. DVMT allocates memory based on system needs. Some newer systems have an option in the system BIOS to adjust the amount of memory available for DVMT. Memory can be allocated up to the maximum limit set by the graphics driver. The maximum limit of video memory allocated by DVMT depends on your specific Intel chipset and the version of the graphics driver installed. Specific information for each integrated graphics chipset can be found via the links below. * DVMT White Paper - Mobile Intel® 945GM Express Chipset Family * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 945G Express Chipset Family * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 82865G graphics controller (Intel® 865 chipset family) * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 82852/82855 GM/GME graphics controllers (Intel® 852/855 chipset families) * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 82845G graphics controller (Intel® 845 chipset family) * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 82815 graphics controller (Intel® 815 chipset family) * DVMT White Paper - Intel® 82810 graphics controller (Intel® 810 chipset family)

What is a supervisor call interrupt?
SVC (supervisor-call): A request from the user-program to the kernel (or supervisor), to do something like open a file, allocate memory, create a new process etc. In x86 platform SVCs are executed via "INT nn" machine instruction, that's what Intel calls 'software interrupt'.
Why you Use Memory Segmentation In 8086 Microprocessor?
The 8086/8088 is a 16 bit processor running on a 16 bit (8086) or 8 bit (8088) bus with a 20 bit address bus. In order to obtain the extra 4 bits of addressibility, Intel designed segment registers that are effectively multiplied by four and then added to the 16 bit offset address generated by the instruction. This yields 64K segments of 64KB each, although they overlap each other at a distance of 16 bytes.
How will floating point value 5.375 be saved in memory that is its bit representation in memory?
5.37510 is 101.0112 Normalize and you get 1.01011E210 (1.010112 * 22) IEEE 754 single precision format is 1 Sign Bit, 8 Exponent Bits in excess 127 format, and 23 mantissa bits with leading implied one missing, so... Sign bit is 0 (+) Exponent is 10000001 (127 + 2) Mantissa is 0101100 00000000 00000000 (101011... with leading 1 omitted) Splice this together and you get 01000000 10101100 00000000 00000000 But in Little Endian machines, like Intel IA 32, you reverse the bytes, so you get 00000000 00000000 10101100 010000000 All of this said, however, you should not care what the bit representation is in memory, because that makes you platform dependent, i.e. non-portable.
What is minimum size of a segment in Intel 8086 Why?
In 8086 microprocessor the total memory addressing capability is 1 mega bytes. For representing 1 mb there are minimum 4 hex digits are required i.e, 20 bits. but 8086 has fourteen 16-bit registers. That is there are no registers for representing 20 bit address. So,the total memory is divided into 16 logical segments and each segment capacity is 64 kb(kilo bytes). That is 16*64kb=1 mb.So,for representing 64 kb only 16 bit register is sufficient. In 8086 microprocessor the total memory addressing capability is 1 mega bytes.

Difference between register and memory?
Registers are storage locations internal the the processor. CPU instructions operate on these values directly. On RISC processors, all data must be moved into a register before it can be operated. On CISC (Intel) chips, there are a few operations that can load data from RAM, process it, and save the result back out, but the fastest operations work directly with registers. Also, there are registers that are set aside for certain tasks, these generally include a program counter, stack, and flags. Each register also has a size that determines the maximum amount of data that can be processed at a time. The registers on Pentium chips, for example, are 32 bits. Finally, there are generally only a few registers available on a processer. Intel chips, for example, have 6 general purpose registers, and several specialized registers including a base register, stack register, flags register, program counter, and some addressing registers. Memory, or RAM, is located external to the CPU. Generally speaking, data has to be loaded into a CPU register from memory before the CPU can process it, RAM is much slower than registers, there is a lot more RAM than registers, and generally memory can be addressed on a byte boundaries, where registers may not be able to access all the bytes in a register. To summarize: in general, registers are temporary storage in the CPU that holds the data the processor is currently working on, while RAM holds the program instructions and the data the program requires.

What is RD RAM?
It is a type of memory. RDRAM (Rambus DRAM) is a type of SDRAM (synchronous dynamic RAM) designed by the Rambus Corporation. It is a type of DDR (Dual Data Rate) memory. It was supported by Intel for use with Intel processors from year 2000 to 2003 after which Intel started supported the standard DDR memory modules instead of RDRAM modules. Since then its usage and market has significantly reduced with standard DDR and then DDR2 picking up market share. Rambus has been in fight with various memory vendors for patents and royalty payments for many years . - Neeraj Sharma
