    Laptop Graphics Card

    I just found out my graphics card cannot support BF2. I am livid. Looking for some ideas on what I should get to upgrade. I really don't want to spend more than $100, but please post all ideas. Thanks.

                There are only a few laptops that have upgradeable graphics cards. Due to miniaturization and heat concerns, the cards available are usually prohibitively expensive. If you had the cash to get
                A: A laptop with the ability to upgrade the card
                and
                B: A new mobile card
                You'd just be better off getting a new laptop every few years.

                My laptop was fine until Doom 3 came out. Pretty much every game after that won't run on it. Ran UT2K4 just fine, so I got my enjoyment out of it.
