That link is for the english/US driver detection page. Probably works best in Firefox/Internet Explorer.

Your link from HP does not work.

Likely, you are unable to change how much memory gets associated with your in-board video chip. You can increase your overall RAM so the video memory does not interfere with your RAM if you have less that 1GB.

 

Your system board/mother board should have a PCI Express slot, at least 1. This slot should be a x16 slot. This means you can purchase a separate video card from any retailer that states PCI Express x16 v2.0 and likely use it in your PC to improve performance.

 

You will not be able to find a "free" way to improve the performance of your PC.

I see no reason to believe you have a NVidia graphics or chipset actually.

Likely, you are unable to change how much memory gets associated with your in-board video chip. You can increase your overall RAM so the video memory does not interfere with your RAM if you have less that 1GB.

Almost always you can get in the BIOS to increase your video, but at the cost of your general memory. Usually 384MB is max for Intel if I recall correctly, but it depends a bit on how old it is.
