What is Lenovo UltraBay. How to use it and what are the limits of its use?

A Lenovo ultrabay is an expandable slot on Lenovo y400 and 500 laptops. From what I know it is a user accessible pcie 2.x slot. The limits of the ultrabay are mainly that it can only use the cards that Lenovo releases for its use, and when using an nvidia graphics card in SLI only one graphics card will be used when on battery.

Can you change the graphic card in a laptop?

You can only change a card that is already dedicated,which means it does NOT use shared memory and is NOT made by intel.

Yes, you can ONLY upgrade Nvidia an ATI cards in a laptop.

And then... usually its not possible. If it is, you have to get a card from the same brand and model, such as with Dell and most Toshiba laptops.

Or maybe you have a special laptop that uses a standardized interface called MXM. Almost all ACER laptops that have a model ending in G use MXM.

Alienware, HP elitebooks 15" and 17" also use MXM. there is MXM 2.1 and 3.0 which are incompatible with each other, and there are different sizes of each.

Will an intel hd 2000 graphics card on a laptop with 750 gb hard drive and 6gb ram play games ok as i'm hoping to buy a laptop with these for uni?

Intel HD graphics are a bad choice. They deliver minimal graphics, and play hot while gaming. The ram is pretty good, and I think the hard drive would work. I suggest you get a desktop if you want to play games well, but please, don't get Intel HD graphics

How much video RAM does an iPod touch have?

As for total RAM, the latest iPod Touch 4G has 256MB, whereas the previous models have less. I doubt there is separate video ram but it is a small amou8nt if any. I'd guess it just uses a small portion of the flash RAM. That is probably part of the reason the actual capacity is less than stated because some is probably allotted for graphics and the like.

I'm just guessing here but that's what I'd go with

Tried installing a new Gforce 256mb DDR 4x - 8x AGP video card on a PC with PC400 Motherboard and 512mb SDRAM 4X AGP now the machine doesn't boot why?

Boot back with original card, go into motherboard Setup and put all your AGP settings to conservative - ie: AGP 2x, AGP Fast Write off, etc. Now put in new card and see if it boots. If so, play with AGP settings one-by-one (ie: change one, reboot) to get maximum speed without crashing system. Also consider upgrading the motherboard's BIOS and double-check power connections. Double-check if the new card has a power connector on it. If so, it must be connected.

What is the difference between a VGA and AGP graphics card and slot compatibility?

VGA is ("Video Graphics Array/adapter") the term for a video card or other video adapter (such as an integrated one). AGP is a standard for video card expansion slots. Basically these are slots (designed for graphics adapters) that operate at a much higher throughput than PCI slots (normal, shoter, usually white expansion slots for other expansion cards). These come in a few versions: 2X, 4X, and 8X are the big ones right now. If you are interested in upgrading your video card (or lack thereof) you need to know what version your motherboard supports (an old one might support 2X /4X) and then you can decide what version of AGP to look for in a video card.

also note that there is a new standard for video cards called PCI-express (PCI-x16). Currently, most of the newest video cards and motherboards are designed on this.
