first of all you can't overclock IGP's and second the only way to adjust the shared memory is through either the igp driver software or the Bios.
There really isn't a point to adjust the shared memory on your IGP, because it's not going to make a diff.

So even if something requires 64mb VRAM and i overclocked my IGP to 64MB, it would make any difference?

You can't overclock IGP's period you can only allocate max mem via the BIOS settings....

Would you know how to do that on a HP DV2000 laptop?

How about reading your manual? Or maybe having a look at the BIOS?
According to HP, the dv2000 has "NVIDIA® GeForce™ Go 7200 with 128MB of TurboCache™ video Memory"

And allocating memory to the graphics adapter is NOT overclocking. As the others have said, you cannot overclock an IGP (Integrated Graphics Processor)

You can always try to use "coolbits" to see if you can overclock the GPU.
