Hello;
Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!
Unlike desktop PCs, laptops do not use video "cards"; instead, they use video chips that are permanently attached to either video modules, or to the laptop system board. These are not customer-replaceable parts.

Instant, accurate but not what you want to hear. No, sorry there is no video "card" in your laptop and 99% of other laptops. The video is soldered right on the motherboard so no place to put anything new like a "card".
