MPC Transport X1000 Video Upgrade Options

Hi everyone this is my first post here but I was assured this was the place to come with my notebook questions! I have a MPC Trans Port X1000 notebook computer. I realize it is an older model but it has treated me fairly well and I really don't want to upgrade to a new system at this time. I would like to upgrade my video card if it is possible and that is my question.

Right now I have a MOBILITY RADEON 9000 Display Chip Type Display Memory 32.0 MB. I know that the X1000 came from the factory with the option of a 64.0 MB version of this video card. So my question is are there other options as well? Is it even feasable to upgrade this videocard, is it a soldered in card? What would be the best choice that my laptop could support?

Here is the basic break down of my system as it sits today: My Laptop(MPC Transport X1000): OS: Win2k System Proc: Mobile Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 - M CPU 2.2GHz RAM: 1gb, DirectX 9.0c (4.09.0000.0904) Display Card: MOBILITY RADEON 9000 Display Chip Type Display Memory 32.0 MB Sound Description: Realtek AC97 Audio
Sound Driver Version 5.10.0000.6290

Any constructive advise would be greatly appreciated! Thanks,
Matt

Hey. I'm looking into buying one of these. I don't know if you'll respond in time but I was wondering WHY you're looking to upgrade the video. Just for fun, or does the computer actually need it? Obviously you like the computer, but can you give me a little review? I can't find any user reviews on the internet.

Overall I love this notebook! I upgraded a while ago to a gig of Ram and just wanted to upgrade the video because I occasionally play online games on it when I am on the road and the videocard only have 32mb of memory makes it somewhat painful The only other upgrade I have planned is for a new 120GB 7200rpm hard drive as the 20GB 5400rpm is rather small and slow by today's standards.

Hope this helped,
Matt
