Laptop_upgrade68.jpg” title=’I’m looking to upgrade my Laptop so that it performs better with the games I play/want to play but I have heard conflicting things about whether it’s even possible to upgrade a Laptop.
Some people say none can, some people say certain Laptops can be.
I have a Toshiba Satellite A210-198 so would I be able to upgrade it?
On a side note, if they can be upgraded what are good components to upgrade to?
Can I find out whether I have onboard graphics or seperate graphics without opening it?

I have a Dell Dimension running windows vista. I have a ATI Radeon S9250 video card that supports up to XP. Is there a way to find a driver upgrade so I don’t have to return the card?

I assume you can if the Laptop has 2 options for a dedicated card and you upgrade from the less powerful option. What about space requirements and switching out Nvidia in favor of ATI or vise versa?

Wait for Windows 7 to come out and then upgrade my hardware, or do it now?
I use it 50% for gaming (WoW and Company of Heroes) and 50% for general web surfing.
My specs are:
8800GTS Video Card
4gb DDR2 Memory
Asus MB
2x340gig Seagate 7200 RPM drives in Raid0
Intel E8400 3Ghz Processor
Does it make sense to go to the new I7 processor based systems?

I got a Laptop with an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650. I’ll probably end up wanting to upgrade this if it’s possible to do that. I did an upgrade on a desktop, but a friend told me that Laptops can’t really be upgraded. Any ideas? I want to be able to play Alpha Protocol when it comes out, under high settings.

I have a 5 yr old pc that I want to install win 7 on. I want to know if win 7 is friendly with older pc’s.
CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2.16 GHZ
1.5 RAM
320 GB
I’m just worried that the video card won’t be able to handle it.
