Default Graphics Card for my laptop.

Hi, i have a bad setup for gaming on my laptop, however World in conflict has really caught my eye, and i thought it won't be that good on the 360, plus mine is breaking.
So anyway i have a 1024mb ram, 120 gb hdd, dual core, compaq presario f500.

My Graphics card is a 64mb amd athlon.
This is not good enough to run WiC, and i think it's unremovable from the laptop.
So i posted a thread on the forums and i was told about disabling onboard graphics, and getting a new card.

Could anybody please help me with this? giving an in depth walkthrough of how to do this? it would be much appreciated, Thanks!

Asus make a device called the XG Station which allows you to connect a standard desktop graphics card to a laptop via an express card slot which your laptop may or may not have. I don't know the exact details other than it will cost around $600 which includes an Asus 7900gs graphics card. I also don't know whether it has been released or not as I cant find it in any online stores but it was due for release in Q2 07. I believe this is the only way to upgrade the graphics chip in most laptops, and I'm sorry I can't be of more help.
