I recently purchased a new computer game (Everquest II if you must know). Unfortunatley even though I have 512 mb installed, the system only says that it has 504, below the minimum requirements. Is there anyway around this? I spent a lot of money for a game that I cant use, so any solution would be appreciated

Hi Bill2005 and welcome to PCHF
Unfortunately you cannot play the game, even when you did have 512mb ram to use, apparently 8mb ram has been snooped off by your onboard video card. (though 8mb for onboard video is really low...)
Your best bet is to buy a videocard to icrease graphic performance, that way you'll have your full 512mb ram as well.
