Where do you find your graphics driver within windows xp to find out if it is
working or needs to be updated?

And its not MS graphics driver....its the driver for whatever brand of video you
are using...Intel...ATI...NVidea??
As such under device manager/display adaptors.....right click the name that
shows up.properties then the driver tab.
Right there it tells you who made the card and the driver version.Now go to this
manufacturers website and look for updated drivers for that specific
card/chipset.You can also right click an empty spot on the desktop then
properties...then settings.
At this point it should show your monitor and what video card its connected
to.Then click advanced......adaptor and here you will find more detail as to
what you have for a video card.

You don't. You go to the video card manufacturer's web site and get the
latest drivers from them.

speaking of graphics driver; ProSavage DDR shares 32mb from 256mb RAM, if I
were to add another 256mb would windows be able to allow an additional 32mb
from that memory bank too for a total of 64mb, and if so, how would you do
that? windows xp

If this is a build in Video yes you can(normally) in the BIOS increase the
memory allocation to the video .......note that this also reduces the memory
that you use normally for XP and programs.Maybe its time to look into what costs
less more memory or a PCI/AGP(if you have the slot) video card.
