In most cases no, the graphics chipset on notebooks/laptops is part of the motherboard, and not some expansion slot that you can switch. It's part of the price of portability. With desktops, you've got all those lovely expansion slots to upgrade sound, video etc. whenever you like...

Your laptop graphics card (chip) can be upgraded but it's not as simple as on a desktop computer. I would contact the retailer you originally got your laptop from or Toshiba and go from there.

laptops come with graphic embedded onto the board the only upgrade is to download the latest drivers,and or install more memory because these video chips share main memory,actually you are adding more resources to you laptop with memory ,generally there's no upgrade for this without upgrading the board it'self,sorry.

Dear Friend you can not upgrade graphic card inlaptop as its onboard.Best thing you can do is either try to update your graphic drivers or upgrade your ram memory or at last buy new one with nVIDIA graphic card.

you can not upgrad your laptop.ther are 2 things only that can be upgraded in the laptop: the hard disk capacity and the ram
in small no. of models you can chang the cd driver to dvd driver or to other one
and that because the other ships in your laptop are in one piece (mother bored) then you can chang or upgrad anything unless you change it which means "buy another one"

Buy another one. Go to a store that sells that sort of thing, tell them what kind of computer you have, and they'll help you.
