The Dell Inspiron 1000 uses a SiS M650 graphics adapter, which borrows 64MB of memory from the main system RAM​

I'm planning on fixing my mums laptop up for myself as she doesnt want it anymore but i dont know alot about computers etc.

So far:

I'm going to add a new HD, probably 60gb maybe more if i can get a cheaper one.

Also, i'm buying a WLAN card for the pcmcia slot

I also want a decent graphics card (not amazing cos i dont play games really) I'll use it mainly for gfx and video editing. But the quote i got from CNET sounds bad... i'm fairly sure my mums inspiron doesnt have 512 ram (cant find out very easily as computer is at the office until next weekend i think). So surely if it's using memory from ram, im slowing the computer down?

So can anyone suggest a card for me?

Also, if i dont have 512 ram, what am i best to do? Buy a bit more or upgrade the processor first as i want it to be faster?

Thanks very much...

You can't replace the graphics card of the laptop,because it's intergrated.
If you want to increase the performance a bit,you can add more ram.
