| So guys, I got a N4010 Dell Inspiron laptop (thanks to my generous parents!)
Apparently, I need a video card. Anyone can give me any feedback on this?
Also, how can I know if my drivers and BIOS need to be updated? I downloaded everything from the Dell website, but I don't know if I should install then...
HEELP!!! |

| Is Windows included with the package? Is it installed? |

| And don't you have a video card in it? Or you need just the drivers? |

| Here is from their website: http://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/kcs/document?&docid=DSN_324722&isLegacy=true#Issue2
So just do the check, and if you need drivers then it says |

| I assume it is the Home edition.
Yes, it came with a video card. Intel(R) HD Graphics, however it is not of good quality.
And about that, I just got confused. |

| Dell Support now has the ability to scan some Dell computers for Driver Updates. On the Drivers and Download page, if you see Scan Your System for Updates click on it to scan your system. |

| Sticking a video card into a laptop, is very tricky. |
