only if there is an option in the bios, the inspiron 1000 is a very basic entry level computer, not designed for gaming or high end graphics or multimedia, it was designed for a student or houshold chaep laptop

Call Dell customer service, they will let you know if you can upgrade the video memory. 32MB is very very slow . Hope you can get it better. Good luck!

You have to buy a new video card. The memory on a video card is built into the card itself, not like upgrading regular RAM where you can swap out sticks of RAM.

The reminiscence is device reminiscence that the video card is borrowing. that's purely borrowing 256MB by way of fact extra advantageous than that could make your physique costs unacceptably low. the problem is that your video chipset isn't that valuable. extra reminiscence might purely make issues worse by way of fact it takes longer to get admission to extra reminiscence. In any journey, that's no longer a hardware improve. The splitting of device reminiscence between the working device and the video card is dealt with in application.
