    Is it possible to switch and upgrade video card of Inspiron 6400/E1505, from integrated Intel Media Accelerator 950 to NVidia GeForce Go7300 ?
    If it's possible how do you do that ?
    And can somebody advise me with a little help guide or a description how do you do that kind of stuff ?

    I would be very grateful.
    I'm waiting for replies. Thx ;]

    No, you cannot upgrade integrated video cards to a discrete video cards with laptops.

    There's currently NO exception to this rule. Your Inspiron 6400 and E1505 included.
