you have to ask HP what happens if you put another graphics card into your computer. if it works the way it is supposed to, then your existing graphics card should automatically disable. otherwise, you will have to get a whole new computer.
Herb...
I bought a new game that requires DirectX 8.0 or higher. Apparently, my HP Pavillion 6736 does not support DirectX 8.0. I checked my Video Card and this is where I get confused (I'm a novice at best). It says I have an Intel 810L controller on the motherboard with 11MB shared system memory and it is NOT UPGRADEABLE. Does this mean I cannot buy a new graphics card or am I missing something. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
