External video card for Toshiba laptop?

Post by marcoantonio »

Hi all,

I want to run Avenue on laptop - but I get the 'insufficient graphics card' message and it won't run.

It's a Toshiba Satellite A200, which seems to have an Express Card (I don't have the specs). It comes with a standard Intel video card. I've read about external video cards which may be useful, such as:

ViDock2 (Radeon 4670 Card)

MSI Upgrade solution (with ATI Radeon HD 5670, for example)

VTBook

Which one is best for Resolume? Are there better ones? What should I buy? I have a gig in two weeks and need my laptop up to scratch ... :(

(no, i can't afford a new laptop!)

thanks in advance - all help is appreciated!!!!

M.
