2 questions about vista

[mattest2542]

I just purchased a laptop with a dual core proceesor gig of ram and vista premium. I use a 2.5 mbps connection and for some reason my laptop does not take full advantage of it, I am getting download speads at 40 kbps, and I was wondering how to fix this problem.

Second thing is how do you alot more ram memory to my internal nvidia 6150 for better video performance

Vista is supposed to automatically set the best connection settings, but there could be something messed up with that.

As far as your video card, you have to buy a better video card to get more vide memory. The memory is hardwired into the card I believe. Unless that's an onboard video card, then it shares your system memory. In that case, you need to go into bios and see if it can be increased; but don't expect a stellar change because I've never seen more than 128 MB being allocated to video onboard.
