  1. Game not working because of a video memory problem?


    Hi. I was trying to play a game on my windows 10 laptop and it was working perfectly until today, where a gaming UI thing popped up and said "out of video memory trying to allocate a rendering resource. Make sure that your video card has the minimum required memory, try lowering the resolution and/or closing other applications that are running. Exiting..."I closed every other app I had open and lowered the resolution as much as I could but still nothing.The game says it needs 2.0 GB of video memory, and my computer has 2.0 GB of video memory so I have no idea what the problem is.Please help

    :)
