  1. You're SOL...you can't upgrade the video card in a laptop, as it isn't a card but rather a chip on the motherboard...that's why you spend a lot for gaming on a laptop. Use a desktop for gaming!
  2. Yup, there's not much you can do for an upgrade on a laptop. Adding memory is about the only worthwhile upgrade. Most laptop video cards are made specifically for a certain motherboard and sometimes they are even integrated (part of the board) like jason mentioned. This is why when you buy a laptop, you buy for the future and not just for now.
  3. It's true. You cannot upgrade the graphics in a laptop because it's not a separate part of the computer like a graphics card is in a desktop. It's part of the actual motherboard itself. In order to meet the minimum requirements, you're gonna have to get a new computer. I suggest a desktop.
  4. Get a new laptop with DEDICATED graphics (i.e. a solid graphics card) and not the ONBOARD graphics that most, cheap laptops offer... good luck!
  5. I actually wish I could also improve the graphics of my HP DV9410us laptop... The most that you can do is to increase the dedicated memory of your NVIDIA vcard. You can do this in the BIOS set up......
