Hope this is the right section :p

Hi, I'm quite new here and I wanted to know if I could upgrade the CPU and maybe the video card of my laptop.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I have found from personal experience that HP is decent on responding to upgrade questions. They should be able to tell you what can and cannot be upgraded and then buy the parts from a cheaper source. :D
