I recently installed the latest BIOS update and still nothing. Apparently there is some "developer mode" for the BIOS that can be accessed by pressing a key combination, which goes like this:
- Power off completely.
- Press the power button.
- Repeatedly press F2 to enter BIOS.
- Press the following key sequence 3 times, one key at a time: Fn , R , N.
- Press F10 and Enter to save and exit.
- Repeatedly press F2 to enter BIOS, that reveals the advanced settings.

Anyways, this doesn't help at all since it brings up a lot of useless options but no option to modify VRAM.

I've seen videos of people modifying VRAM on older Lenovo laptops, but the new BIOS doesn't allow it.
@Rokebo73 Yes I did, it's current value is "4G"
Lower it , tried that ?
Update us !
There was 2 options, 2G and 1G, both didn't work.
After changing the settings the game started launching, but then it closed and an error popped up in Steam saying: "Failure, app running" (attached an image).
