BOTH low image quality settings and low resolutions, or the animation will be herky-jerky.

Regretably, as part of the overhaul in production methods adopted to bring prices down, access to what starts out as the "insides" of a laptop is no longer available. The electronics are all soldered together, and the chassis is permanently welded to the mainboard, so separating them destroys them. Only Sager still produce (or they were) one of the older style lapptops as a desktop replacement that is assembled from discrete parts, so it can be upgraded. Modern laptops are effectively disposable, since the CPUs and GPUs are permanent.

Wow that svcks.
I guess I'm sticking to old games...
Will it atleast run morrowind in ultra?
I'm now sad, but going to be buying : Half-life, Morrowind, possibly oblivion, Diablo 1-2, and other old games.

Morrowind will certainly be playable. Oblivion will still be around low settings, but close to medium. The other games will be fine with a 310M GeForce
