    Is it possible to upgrade the video card in this laptop to one that will support Windows Vista? I've read several threads about the limitations of the factory installed card, I'm pretty good at opening up laptops to change fans etc and it's out of warranty so that's not a concern.
    If so can anyone recommend a replacement card?

    Nope you can't. Go read the Upgrading Mobile Cards FAQ/Sticky and you'll get the answer.

    Woot, got in before this thread gets closed/deleted.
