Ok she my prob is simple ...(i think lol)...i bought a new Acer Aspire 4520 and some say it's suppose to get 1 Gig of video memory, but in my BIOS it only lets me choose 64Mb to 256Mb, and the video chipset is Nvidia GeForce 7000m. I also have some Acer Tools that came with it pre installed but they don't give me any more information then what i already know and nothing leads me to belive that it can so far......so i guess my question would be ..does anybody know anything about these laptops or have one themselves that could give me some advice ? thanks for any help :)

I expect you can, but why would you want to? There's nothing a GF7000 can do without hideous lag that even needs as much as 256MB RAM.

True, but unlike overclocking which does yield a performance benefit, even if only slight, adding extra memory will have zero effect unless you're actually running out in the first place.
