I play World of Warcraft and I found a site that will tell me if my laptop has the minimum requirements for the latest expansion, Wrath of the Lich King. 2 things failed. the video card isn't good enough. it says  Minimum: 3D graphics processor with Hardware Transform and Lighting with 32 MB VRAM (ATI Radeon 7200 or NVIDIA GeForce 2 class card or better)

I was wondering if there is anything better. My current video card only gives me about 1 Fps. I was wondering if there is anything better than the recommended video card.

It is almost impossible to upgrade the graphics card in a notebook, the cost simply is not worth it. You may want to look at upgrading to a better notebook if you want to game on it. A mid grade notebook around $699.99 would be a good place to start.

More info on your current laptop please?

WoW's graphics requirements are quite low (esp. if you drop the settings down), so your system must be ANCIENT.
