Upgrade Graphics Card on my Vaio - VPCEH1L83

Hi,  I have just bought Elder Scrolls V Skyrim and I have been informed by Tech support that the Intel Graphics Card is not supported, it needs to at a minimu 512MB card, probably a AMD Radion 8800 or better.

Is it possible to change the card on this Viao?

I have a Sony Viao i3  - VPCEH1L83

Hi SamWil9 and welcome.

Notebook computers have very limited upgradeability.  Sadly the graphics chip is an integral part of the machine and cannot be upgraded.

You should be able to run Elder Scrolls V Skyrim as long as you are prepared to lower some of the settings: -
