No, the major manufacturers like Dell, HP and IBM often sell their Notebook PCs with options to buyers with choice of different options to include the built in video card...and the manufacturers also mass produce the accompanying Windows OS and utilities CDs to accomodate such buyer options that also include WiFi etc. There are 2 quick ways to determine which Video Card is installed on your IBM Lenovo Notebook such as (i) opening Control Panel, going to Display then Settings and there it will identify the installed Video Card; or (ii) also going to Control Panel then System then Hardware and doubleclicking on Display Adapters... Hope the Above Info Helps!

No. Your video chip is soldered onto the motherboard. You can not replace it.
