AboutBobbert Expertise I can answer technical questions about installation, use, and maintinence of most 3D Graphics hardware, and software. I can offer assistance with overclocking (while I do not suggest overclocking while under warranty) and I can give assistance with more complicated problems to the full extent of my abilities.
Experience I have been into computer hardware, especially 3D graphics and the hardware that drives them, for a number of years. I have knowledge in installation, use, troubleshooting, purchase suggestions and over clocking.

Question I recently uploaded Call of Duty 4 and received a video card error. I just assumed since purchasing the notebook last year it would have one of the updated video cards. I have an Toshiba Satellite A135-4677, and after further review of the specs noted it has a Intel Graphics Media Accelator 950 card. My greatest question that I cannot get help from Toshiba or TigerDirect is or can the video card be upgraded or replaced internally or will an expansion card have to be used. If you have any knowledge or whom to contact to get further advise it would be appreciated.
Answer You'd have to contact Toshiba about any upgrades, however given that its a notebook, I'm going to say there isn't a high chance of a graphics upgrade (due to the proprietary nature of notebooks). The GMA 950 is very likely incapable of Call of Duty 4, as an aside.
