Hey, i want to do gaming on my laptop and my graphics card isnt good enough for any good games (like MW2). Is there any way to either change its graphics card or to get an external one that will work well. I have a Toshiba Satellite A305 with windows vista home premium. If you know of any solutions, thanks. P.S. i can post my dxdiag if i need to.

Never be afraid to do your best work and let the

Never let someone tell you not to try something because it's stupid.


Turn off the recommended settings.

Like TD says, there isn't really a way to do this on a laptop - especially for games like MW2 as they have very high requirements.

If there is an option for some A305 laptops to come with a better graphics card when you ordered it, then you may be able to buy a graphics module... this is only a possibility though. You'd need to contact Toshiba directly to see if this is possible. Even if you could do this, it would only be an ATI HD 3650 or something similar, which may not run what you are after.
