    when i was playing around in the dell website today, customizing a m1330, the website does not let me choose the dedicated video card with the 4 cell and 9 cell battery combo selection. i know that it will not let me choose the 4 cell because it is not enough for the video card but what about the 4 and 9cell combo. why wouldn't that work

    Because you will still be getting a battery that can't power the GPU. Configure it with a 6 cell and 9 cell combo and you should be fine, or get JUST the 9 cell.

    Configure first battery to 6 cell, configure second battery to 9 cell. Or visa versa... should be in there.
