- You can't upgrade the graphics card..
- Probably not, because everything from Sony Vaio has been integrated.
- Oftentimes laptops have fixed motherboards. This means that in order to upgrade you have to replace the entire motherboard, which is often beyond the knowledge of many non-technical people (like myself haha). But try contacting your manufacturer for advice. Some high end laptops are customizable.
- you can upgrade ram but not your graphics chip it is built into the motherboard sorry
- You can not upgrade a graphic card on a laptop. However your ram can be upgraded to a max of 4 gbs. If you use a 32-bit OS it will only use about 3.5 gb of 4 gb of ram because of the kernal, however a 64-bit OS will not have this effect. you laptop can only use DDR2 PC2-6400 ram with up to 2 gbs of ram per slot.
- You can't upgrade the graphic card on a laptop, only on PC! That is the same thing I ask and they say that you need to find and buy one with a different graphic card!
- You can use an external video card ie. iomega, etc and use an external monitor
- No
