No, you can't.

First check your type, Is it DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 or maybe something else.

When you know your type, in your case DDR1, you have to check the speed.

DDR1 has 333 or 400, DDR2 has 553,667,800 or 1066, DDR3 has 1066,1333,1600,1800,1866,2000,2133,2200 or 2300 and even higher.

In your case 333 or 400 speed. So you can replace your DDR1 depends on your speed for a 512GB, 1GB or 2GB RAM.

But you have to check what is max. to place!

And you can place DDR3 if you want, but then you have to change motherboard.

And in that case better to buy a new computer.

Sorry for my english :)

Yes. The video on the memory card is not dependent on the the system memory. As long as you have an expansion slot for the new card to go in, it will work.

Yes. The type of memory in a graphics card has no bearing on the type of memory you can use on the motherboard, or vice versa.
