michael Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Onboard Intel graphics on that one isn't it? I doubt you'd be able to upgrade it without a soldering iron, some luck or a system board from a higher spec version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 you could do with checking if it shares the system ram for its memory, if then possible upgrade the laptops Ram, and allocate more memory to the graphics adapter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Usually when a laptop needs a better graphics card you just buy a new laptop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to play games on it as it is with me in my lorry all week long and it's a good way to kill a few hours while waiting.When I say play games i don't mean solitare or frogger etc more like battlefield2, desert combat and other games that requires simular specs.
