Hey Richard,
I just sold my shitty Pav G7 on Craigslist (lol hope it wasn't you). Anyways, that is not a gaming laptop. It has an integrated video card, so that card won't be going anywhere soon. If you were to actually successfully find a compatible fit of a better integrated card, the system wouldn't be able to use it because the PC is set to use the manufacturers card.
Just sell that poop and get a gaming rig or a Toshiba quad core. DO NOT GET HP IF YOU INTEND ON GAMING, HP SUCKS SO MUCH A$$!!

You can go to this website
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=5148878&
to download the latest drivers for your laptop. Or you can go to the control panel and select Device Manager and then click on display adapters. Right click on the graphics card under the display drivers and select update driver. Then you should be able to select "Search automatically for updated driver software" and it will look on the internet for the latest updates.
