    I have a Toshiba 2415 notebook and it has a GeForce4 420 Go. Until now it has worked well for all my gaming purposes but with the new shader technologies I am unable to play many of the new games. I was looking into graphics cards for laptops and found that NVIDIA and ATI both make nice cards with the GeForce 6800 go and the Mobility X800. I was wondering if it was possible for me to upgrade my video card and also if anyone would know if these are compatible and where I would buy them because I cannot find anywhere including online that sells the cards by themselves.

    You cannot upgrade the graphics card.







    I was robbed by a sweet little old lady on a motorized cart and I didn't even see it coming.
