Please help me...

I currently am using S3 Trio3D Rev B and it has 4 MB Memory.

I need 8 MB of Memory.

Any suggestions?

I was wanting to download something to upgrade is that possible? Where can I look?

I went on S3 Incorporated's website and tried to download another driver and this came up: "C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\FLPBFN8B\9x26106{1}.zip" Access to the specified device, path, or file is denied.

Can anyone please help me???

Welcome To WD Bonnie .

Can you download it again but have it saved somewhere like 'MyDocuments' ?
this is just the drivers for that Trio , it won't increase the memory amout .

Also thats a very old Graphic card , if its an old PC it would be better just go to a PC store or repair and pick up a newer used card , 16mb to 32mb card of some brand would be much , $5 to have ever good you wanted to go .

in case you lost the link for the driver ;

Like Gramps said, there is no way to increase the memory size of that card by using a software solution.

Visit your local computer store and ask around for cards they're not using anymore - you might get lucky. You'll most likely find that PCI cards are harder to find than AGP now, but you'll have better luck by looking around for used parts.

Heck, I've thrown out cards with more memory than that. :(
