You know he IS talking about a laptop (in the laptop section) and upgrading video in a laptop is not something you want to mess with.

If you can't buy a new video card for your laptop, then it's not MEANT to be upgraded.

Now, it's possible to solder in a new chip, but thats only if you want to remove the original. And that is an INCREDIBLY difficult thing to do. Doable yes, but only by the most advanced computer technicians i would imagine. Especially if you don't have the proper tools.

almost all of dells parts are removable besides their onboard stuff. if you look up the manual online they teach you how to remove everything.
