I'm sure this question has been asked and answered many times, but I couldn't find it. I just bought Halo PC for my laptop (a Gateway notebook). When I got home and installed it, it said that my video capabilities were not good enough for this game. So, is it possible that I can put a new video card in my laptop? Please let me know what to do.

I'm not a guru of laptops...but I think he's right. What's in a laptop is mostly what will be in it. You can swap HDD's and optical drives but...not really a video card. Navu would probably know.

Alright, thanks you guys. I guess I'll just have to play Halo PC with sucky graphics when I'm out of town. But when I'm home, I'll stick to the Xbox versions...
