    OK, so I have a ATI Radeon 9600 Special Edition which has about 128 MB of RAM. One particular game I am trying to run requires me to have at least 256 before it even starts. How can I add some RAM from my PC (2GB) and share it with my video card to make it like half inegrated graphics and half dedicated graphics memory. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi, that's AGP right?
    Being a AGP card you can enter your systems bios and change the AGP aperture size, however it may not have the results you are hoping for.

    If it needs a 256MB card, a Radeon 9600 isn't going to play the game. It will either crash or run so badly there will be no point trying to play it. Time to upgrade.
