You can't. Buy a new video card to get more RAM.

That is one of the funniest things I've ever heard. It's also the first time anyone has ever asked that question.(that I've heard) But thinking about it- WHY COULDN"T YOU? Why don't video card manufacturers add slots for "notebook" style ram. HMMMMMMM

because of the all the horrible problems that result when people screw around with their computers.

just play BF2 and be happy, dont try to make your computer better than it is.

Increase your AGP aperture, basically telling the computer to use some of your ram as additional graphics card memory

Because graphics cards run a much more advanced ram.

I believe video cards USED to be upgradeable back in 'the day'. I think I upgraded mine from 2 mb to 4 mb once ;)

I am aware of the ram. But that doesn't mean that it cant be the size of notebook ram. DDR3 isn't that advance that it can't be mounted on a small board.
