    Nope, can't switch video cards. The general rule is what you buy is what you're stuck with.

    I think vista is installed @ your laptop? Go to that site IceDragon7 posted then:

    click download drivers
    click on the left side, vista 32bit
    click on date at the middle of the page (twice, to get the newest drivers on top)
    click 163.44
    click driver
    click modded inf

    Now begins the installing, unzip the drivers to somewhere u want to. Then move the downloaded modded .inf to the map where u unzipped it to and replace the file with the old .inf that was in there. And start installing

    And then... Have fun ;)
