  You haven't specified what OS or editing software you're using, or how
your swap file is configured.  While I think you'll have a better experience
with a faster and more capable video card, an "Out of memory" error is
probably related to these other components and is VERY unlikely to refer to
the memory on the card itself.

I'm looking at upgrading to 128 megs (or just 64?) since they are so reasonable on Ebay. Here are some specs on my computer.
