    Hello All

    New to the forum. looking at upgrading my 8920G. just upped the ram to 4G. Want to upgrade the processor to a T9300/T9400.

    Is it possible to install the TV tuner in a model that didn't come from the factory with it?

    Or if anyone else has some ideas for upgrades, that would be great
    thanks in advance for any help.

    There is always external solutions for tv-tuners. like expresscards or pcmcia or even USB. So i'd say yes if you have expresscard34 or 54 or pcmcia.

    But i have a guess that you mean that your model has optional tv-tuner from factory and you want one of those?

    What notebook is an "8920G" ?
