Comment:
The Dell 0WJ770 mother board has only two DIMM slots each with 1GB RAM. Is possible to install larger RAM into these slots 2GB each. additional info Bus clock: 533 megahertz, BIOS: Dell Inc. A04 04/04/2006. Also need to update the video card which I am told is part of the mother board.

No, seems like 2 gigs is your limit. From the specs I saw, you have pci express or pci-e as it's called on the board for a video card. You have onboard video right now which is on the motherboard. It's not a separate card. Someone will probably give you advice on a pci-e card.
