    i have a notebook with 945gm chipset in it, its not that amazing. i was just exploring around till isee this http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/945gm/945gm_diagram.htm

    ok so im supposed to have a pci express slot on my laptop or what? or can i upgrade? computer is toshiba sattelite t2250 is there something i can do to get better gaming performance.

    btw i have 128mb video memory on the chipset and it says it only uses 8mb how come i tried to modifiy it trhew BIOS but theres nothing that allowed me to do so i did an update though!

    unfortunately, laptop components cannot be customized like regular desktops. only thing you can change is hard drive and memory.

    if you want better game performance, better off looking at a new laptop.

    i actually knew that, but all these articles that ive read have mixed me up so i think the image that i linked previously isnt for a laptop probably for a desktop, i was reading here and there and i found i toshiba's site that a 945gm could be upgraded??! wth? anyway i was trying to find a solution, there gotta be a gate to go out you know i mean this is duo processor, i think my friend toshiba model is a little bit newer (i think t4xxx model) anyway, i did see that he had ATI X1300 or 1500 running on his laptop, when i asked him like you know how come is that on your pc arent you supposed to have a chipset, he didnt say much although he did told me to send it to toshiba they would do it for me. I dont know should i even attempt to do this, i mean would they come out with something at the end
