How can I upgrade integrated video card?

I have an HP PAVILION DV4 1124NR with an INTEL MEDIA ACCELERATOR 4500MHD, and it sucks for gaming. Is there a way that I can SOMEHOW upgrade my card, or enhance the computer to be able to play games smoothly? It already has 4GB of RAM and a 2GHZ processor.|||well you could upgrade your processor to dual core or quad core or buy a new computer also it will help if you go to contol panel then double click on system for vista right click computer and click properties.

go to the advanced tab and under performance click settings then check adjust for best performance. apply, ok then you can dont have any programs intrnet browsers running or anything thats takes memory even though you have 4gb of ram. to upgrade your video card go to hp.com and look for your model and stuff. go to google.com and search for videos card updates. that should make your games run a little better but if you want it to run smoothly like a game systme sort of then you need more than one processor and a better video card. that will cost lots of money and to upgrade to more than one processor you need a different computer anyway i dont think you can upgrade anything in yours except, your video card, hardrive, ram, ect. you might have to just buy a whole new computer sorry but hope this helps|||Short answer: you can't. The video card is not upgradable on this notebook model. I suggest you get a desktop computer if you want to use the computer for gaming. Desktop models allows you to upgrade to powerful video cards.|||Unfortunately, with a laptop the answer is a flat no.



The graphics is built into the Motherboard, You would have to replace the Motherboard to upgrade.|||Integrated graphics = no graphics card. Your CPU is actually acting as a graphics card. Unfortunately, there is nothing their you can do. It's a laptop, so there is no interface to put in a video card. You're SOL.|||Sorry bro you cant change an integrated graphics card because it is soldered to the motherboard. Either get a desktop or get a laptop with a better graphics card
