    Hi
    I would be very grateful for help in upgrading a graphic card in Acer Idea 510. It has NVIDIA GO 7600 MXM2 card originally. I successfully upgraded it to GF m8600GT, but unfortunately the card died. Next, I upgraded it successfully to GF m9500GS and now it seems to be the limit. I failed with 9600GT with ERROR: MXM Structure not found or invalid (PC BIOS upgraded to the newest available version).
    I know the PC is old but I like it :) and I do want to keep it usable by upgrading graphic. I would be very grateful for hints what kind of card has a chance to work e.g. HD4650, GT330M? Thanks in advance.
