I used to have the X1600XT 512.  Couldn't even make 15 FPS in Doom 3 on LOWEST setting...

I'm no expert at laptops...  But if you want gaming power for mobile...

But the GeForce 9800M (any variant) or the Mobility Radeon HD 4850 are powerful options...  I couldn't find any prices on newegg though, sorry.

It really depends what kind of laptop you have. Some allow you to have GPU upgrades and some well... don't.

I would go so far as to say that most laptops don't allow you to change the majority of their parts. As in hard drive, video card, sound card. Although I think everything pretty much lets you change the RAM.

Harddrives can be replaced, just as RAM can. However, CPU and video card are trickier since most of the time CPU is directlyglued/soldered to the motherboard PCB and there is no external slot/videocard to change. The only way to get it working is.. well, get a new computer.

Or you can ask someone with a decent computer the stream the game over the internet for you. I don't think this would work but its worth a try.

Well, even it would be futile, I deeply thank all of you trying to help me. [joke]It may not work, but at least there could be a possibility to sue the fucking chipset video card to get a bit of profit out of it.[/joke]

its your own fault for buying a laptop, and a game when you know you have a laptop.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Your comp SUUUCCKS.
Running a game on a laptop is a pretty bad idea anyways, laptops always overheat and are barely upgradeable. Just get a PC or get COD5 for a console. Go buy a 8600 GT if you want to run COD5.
