How can I increase my strength? It seems like my fighter, with all of her armor, can't carry much more than what she is wearing. I think her strength is at 15 and she can only carry 120 lbs. How do you increase ability scores?

like the belt u get at the adventure mart. give the person 19 strength.

You can't, really, the idea is that when you roll the dice for a character, you try to get the best scores in the stats that are important for that class. For example, for a fighter you would want a high strength and also good constitution and dexterity, whereas intelligence and wisdom would be much less important.
However, there is a way around your problem, as there are some strength enhancing items in the game:

The girdles of Frost, Hill and Stone Giant Strength (found at a storekeep in Trademeet after the completion of the quest, in the Adventurers Mart and in the Underdark) There is also a Mace +2 called the Maulers Arm (I think it's in the Copper Coronet) which raises your strength to 18. I suggest that you quickly find on of these items as strength is very important for a warrior. The weigth carrying problem could be solved with a bag of holding: you can put tons of heavy armour in it and it will still weigh a fixed amount of lbs
