A Toshiba Satellite is a laptop computer. They do not have graphics cards, but
rather the graphics chipset is built into the motherboard. You can't remove or
replace it.

Your video chipset must support Direct3D *and* you must install DirectX. =
If DirectX is installed, click Start>Run, type dxdiag and click OK. =
Go to the display tab and run the tests to se if Direct3D is supported.
