i have a dell dimension 2400 with windows XP home edition. i have a graphics/video driver from NVIDIA....geforce MX4000. i need to find an update for this driver that will add 64 MB of display memory. i currently HAVE only 64 MB and my games seem to need 124 MB. is there a FREE online update available? There's no such thing as a vid card update that will double your RAM...what you have is what it is.you need to get a graphics card that's got 128 mb or greater amount of memory coming with it. You can't double video card memory WITHOUT getting a new card. Bleh...

I just checked out your machine, and that REALLY wont do much in the way of games.

Memory is hardware. Updates can't make it bigger or smaller. An update fixes bugs, and might make things run faster, but they can't physically alter the machine!

You will have to buy and install a new video card. This is what you call a hard ware upgrade.

The 2400 only has PCI slots to install a new card into. PCI is bottom the the barrel though, so don't expect to much gain.canyourunit.com

you can check out how WELL your pc runs but celeron processor? And a PCI only graphics card? That's kind of low end. Since you can't change the computer, disregard some of the above complains.
You can get decent PCI video card with 256MB of RAM for under $50: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&Description=pci%20video%20card&bop=And&ActiveSearchResult=True&Page=5
