Is it possible to change the graphics chip on a 2668?

#1 Post by birdman-c » Tue Apr 25, 2006 8:33 am

I have a 2688J2U and a 2668G7U. One has a better graphics chip then the other... ATI Radeon X300 and I beleive the other is a VL3200. I want to swap the VL3200 with the X300.

I checked the service manual and there is no mention that this can be done. Is it as simple as lifting the keyboard and swapping it out, or can this not be done?

Many thanks.
