How to use video RAM as system RAM???

Hey ppl,
I've got a pentium-4 machine with 256 MB SDRAM...well ya SDRAM(Frequency-133 MHz)...Lately it is jusn't sufficient to run my applications so i was just wondering that can I also use my RAM on the graphics card as system RAM? I've got NVIDIA Geforce 5200 with 128 MB VRAM. I don't play much games nowadays & am just using my computer for normal working but 256 just isn't sufficient & the RAM is also not available in the market so is there any way...just any way to use my not-so-used VRAM?

hope dis helps
