No, they are usually designed to work in the configuration they come in. I can get two different cards for my HP, but if yours is integrated, you would have to replace the whole MO. You might as well purchase a new laptop. I was saying that you need to look for a laptop, that does not have integrated intel. Normally though it is hard to find venders who will order parts for Laptops, unless they are memory, or hard drives. occassionally you can swap video also.

Every 18 months though they have a new design and there are limited parts that are availble for each model that comes out. Laptops are not that upgradeable as desktops which tend to less change over time. Even desktops are harder to do after 3 years.
