Is it absolutely, positively, impossible?

Is it impossible to upgrade a graphics card on a laptop? I'm going to be taking a Gig of RAM from my mom's laptop and put it in my laptop, after I get thewireless thing fixed. After this process, I'll have 2GB of RAM. Now, I have a 64MB Graphics card (GeForce Go 6150, yes I know, what an epic fail haha), and I wanted to know if I could get another card to with at least 128MB of VRAM? The laptop is an HP dv6234 I believe. Would be getting another card (if possible) be pointless because I added the RAM? Thanks everyone!

Unless you can use a welder or sodering iron or w/e they use then it's impossible. That and perhaps basic knowledge of putting a laptop together. So it's impossible.
ASUS has a USB port thats just a PCI-e x16 express port. With it you can install a higher end graphics card. However, you are limited to USB2.0 Bandwidth which defeats the purpose of using it. With USB3.0 the bandwidth will be enough.
