Is there any way i can upgrade a laptops video card?

i have a crappy compaq laptop. all i wanna do i play a game i got and now cant return ecause its opened.|||Generally, not. Most laptops have the video chipset built into the motherboard.|||it will be hard to find a graphics card if your laptop case even has room for it. most of them are somewhat custom to fit in the case unless you have a desktop replacement laptop then any mobility graphics card should work unless then your mobo doesnt support it. :-)|||What is the model #?

It may be possible.

But in all probability you will now have integrated graphics.

If you can add a card, not likely, it will be a pain as you will have to enter BIOS to activate it every time in order to use it if you now have integrated graphics.



The more RAM you have, the more that can be allocated to graphics that are integrated.|||Probably not i have a Compaq Pisario v2000 and it has an integrated video card. it is "non Operable"|||Video cards on laptops are built into the motherboard, they can not be changed.|||Some new high performance laptop and portable computer manufacturers are coming out with models that enable users to upgrade the video card or video accelerator it came shipped with. Unless your one of the lucky few who have one of these types of laptops or portable computer you will not be able to upgrade your video card.



If you are unsure if your laptop or portable computer is this type of computer it is recommended you contact the laptop manufacturer for additional information.|||if it is onboard (built into the mainboard) then no
