    It will get more memory on your RAM when necessary, the allocation will increase or decrease depends on what the GPU will need.

    That's the thing I'm worried about--it seems to think 100 MB is enough to run, say, Minecraft, when Minecraft's gonna want at least 256 MB of VRAM to run well.

    Then it's fine, if it needs to reach to 256mb, the ''Shared System Memory'' will increase.

    I have an e-Tower, with an Intel board, you can tell it to use as much of the memory pool as it wants or needs, up to 256mb. It says "Use DVMT" or "Fixed" or "Both", and the max for DVMT is 256, it won't show Aero with any less. But it's a very old board, I'm sure a newer Intel board will allow more than 256mb.
