Can I change my video card?

Hey all,

 

I have a DV6000 laptop with an NVIDIA GeForce Go 7200 video card.  I have updated my drivers, updated games, played games on the lowest quality setting and even re-installed games but from what I know my video card is most likely overheating and I can't play the game I want to.  I even bought an external fan in order to keep my laptop cooler but I still encounter this problem.  I'll be about ten minutes into the game and my screen goes black.  

What I'm getting to is can I change the video card in my laptop?  I have already sent it in and had the card changed by HP but I still encounter this problem.  I just want to get a nice gaming card and install it.  Is this possible?  I've been told it isn't.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Rachel

Hi,

Sorry but You can't change it cause it's integrated with Your motherboard.
