    Video memory is tied to the graphics card, or if you have a built in card (a cheap one) shared with your RAM.

    Try closing all other programs that are running (including those in the bottom right hand corner of the screen) and see if it runs then.

    If not, a better graphics card is necessary.

    Do you mean video memory? It is built into the graphics card. Check with your manufacturer to see if you can upgrade the memory and if you can, buy a card that suits your needs.

    to play big games like sim's or any 3d game's on any computer it must have these component's :

    - reasonable processor speed not less than 2 ghz

    - ram ( Random access memory ) not less than 2gb

    - video card ( vga ) with 3d ability .

    if you want to play game's with no hanging or error's , you may play game's with less specifications computer but it will not be efficient .
