Yes there is a couple panels on the back that can be opened....but my real question is where can I find a new video chip for a laptop, you can't just walk on into bestbuy & get one soooo :bucky!:

You could ask a family member as long as youre still on good terms. Like Im sure theyll do you a favour,as long as you help them out from time to time. Right?
