I believe the video card is intregated into the motherboard, and therefore cannot be removed

As for replacing/upgrading I cannot see PCI-E on board either.
Here's all your drivers, please update them

Your video is integrated into the motherboard and your board only has pci slots. You could get a pci video card that works with your machine though. You can take a look at my discussion on the matter if you click the link in my signature. You can get a variety of cards (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=Property&Subcategory=48&Description=&Type=&N=2010380048&srchInDesc=&MinPrice=&MaxPrice=&OEMMark=1&OEMMark=0&PropertyCodeValue=696%3A9642&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A18673&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A18775&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A27342&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A9562&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A9563&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A11549&PropertyCodeValue=679%3A20951) including PCI fx5200, fx5500, 6200, x1300, x1550.

Hi vnf4ultra
Can you add that link http://www.techspot.com/vb/topic51437.html
to my post (through reply) at http://www.techspot.com/vb/newintopic98428.html
I would like that thread to have all worthy TechSpot threads attached.
Sadly I missed yours originally.
Thank-you in anticipation (you know I'm just using leading words here)
