This video will show you in great detail how to remove your graphics card in your laptop or notebook. This process is hard, but I will show you how to do it without damaging or hurting your laptop.
This is **PROOF OF CONCEPT** This method will not work with every laptop as each is designed and configured differently.
PC Details:
Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop
Windows Vista: Home Edition (SP1)
Note: I have Virtual PC which allows me to run multiple OS's at one time. (Vista Business & XP & Linux) However, I use Vista: Home Edition as my main OS.
1GB memory (Will upgrade later)
74GB hard drive (I have an external HDD)
Intel Core Duo CPU T2250 @ 1.73 GHz Each
ATI X1400 Mobility Radeon Graphics Card

Does anyone know if an Alienware m11x has a replaceable graphics card and is it possible to increase the RAM? My guess is yes because it's a gaming PC, so it would seem that you should be able to. But I would like to make sure before I buy the upgrades and start taking it apart.

@FLIGHTANIMATOR In every store that I have been in that sold GPUs there were no GPUs for laptops. Your best bet is to buy them from a website online.

will this work with a samsung rv511? :)

@sparky9171 because it would be to easy, and doing it this way we have a way of breaking the computer and then we would have to buy a new one and the store you bought it from would get more money.

Gah, WTF? Can't they just have a little slot that makes switching the graphics card out easy like the hard drive. Why do they have to hide it under everything?
