Hi,

 

For all practical purposes, it is not possible to change the graphics adapter - the adapter in your notebook is physically soldered to the Motherboard.  Another issue is that the bios will have a 'Whitelist' of allowed hardware ( the ATI mobility Radeon HD 6370 is not on this list ), so even if you have sufficient skill to remove the old adapter and solder in the new one, the notebook would refuse to boot.

 

Regards,
