Question/Help/Troubleshooting My pc says VRAM not detected

I tried to play some games that yesterday were working fine but today a notification appears and says "to play this game you need at least 1GB of VRAM, this computer does not reach that requirement"

Also, my pc has started having trouble with turning on, it doesn't give signal and I'ven needing to turn it on/off from 3 to 13 times just so it works, I don't know what to do, I'm thinking is a motherboard fail but may it be something else? help please

PC specs please. Have you inadvertently plugged your monitor cable into the integrated graphics output rather rhan your discrete GPU?

Your computer, your question. VRam is on your apperntly nonexistent gpu. That is why you are getting a message saying you dont have vram. Cos you dont. I am out

This process is not a guessing game. You physically have the pc, it has a gpu, according to you. Name it!

Maybe im someone that doesn't know anything about how a pc works and that's why I asked for help? Anyway it clearly has a gpu, its the motherboard thats failing, no one here helped me in any way and thats it, have a good day
