When I run www.systemrequirements.com it says that I pass all the requirements for playing new-gen games such as Battlefield 2142 etc. apart from the video card criteria. My video card is a Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950, which is crap, can I upgrade it with a aNVidea 7000 or something? thanx

No, you can't. That's the biggest limitation when buying a laptop for gaming.
Very few laptops have an upgradeable video adapter.

Most Laptops have a similar problem....the video card is built into the motherboard to save space. These are not upgradeable. I'd check with the store you bought the laptop from to confirm this though.

ask who you are buying it from first
try not to use a laptop for games, normal pc's are cheaper and easier to upgrade than laptops
