| Vista Ultimate 32-bit | Is Switching Graphics Cards Between Computers Possible? I was wondering whether it is possible for me to switch my Dell's Intel G31/G33 Family Chipset (onboard graphics) with my other computer's S3 ProSavage DDR card (external graphics) so that I might have a chance at playing Age of Empires III on my Dell. If it is possible, would it pose risks to either computer/graphics card or anything of that sort? Thanks in advance! |

| Windows Vista™ Ultimate | Re: Is Switching Graphics Cards Between Computers Possible? Hey Frontline, You can install a external graphics card if you have spare PCI and/or PCIE slots available, When you install the external card the on-board graphics chip automatically turns itself off and does not pose any risks. |
