    I have a Toshiba A215-S7472 laptop that has an ATI Radeon Mobility HD2400 video card installed. I believe this is a dedicated card. Is this possible to upgrade to a better card? If so, what is a good card to purchase and where would I purchase it? I was looking at a GeForce 8600 GT http://www.pcuniverse.com/ASUS-Grap...512-MB-DDR2-OEM/90-C1CIZ5-JXBN00Z/pd/p4348029 .

    Will this be possible with the laptop I have? Thanks for the help!
