Good - but what did you do?
I cannot see it - you have to tell me and all bioses are different.
You found the bios page which has options to change the amount of shared video ram.
The option are usually a list of max video ram amounts, but it could just be "enable/disable" or something else - what was it? Which one did you pick?
You highlighted the option and hit enter/space or whatever to make the change.
Did the bios pace recognise the change, or did the setting remain unchanged dispite this?
You exited the bios selecting the "save and exit" option. When you return to the bios, the change is still there - or not?
You also left some important questions unanswered.
When you say "it didn't work", do you mean that
video ram was not increased or that your
graphics issues were not solved?
How did you configure the driver? (Nvidia provides a tool for this: nvidia-xconfig - did you use it?)
The thing is, you may already be using the maximum shared memory the card can manage.
Check your video memory:

Your card's capabilities in linux:

... phoronix say: not for video games.
The path to improved performance is to tweak the driver with the nvidia config tool. Some people also try overclocking. Some bioses limit vram to a percentage of main ram (to the limit supported by the card). Check you bios and board manuals.
