Why? If it's possible to change the GPU, that's the way to go. Price/Performance is for suckers.

Hello again,
unfortunately the card didn't work with my laptop.
If someone has any suggestion, please write it in order to fix the problem...
Hi Thanos1071,
I am in a similar situation with my FSC Amilo Xi 1526 with Nvidia Go7600 not working anymore.
Which card did you try, the one with ATI HD 4570 or the one with Nvidia 9650 you mentioned in your first post ?

Hello,
I tried the ATI 4570 but it didn't work. I don't know what it went wrong. Maybe it wasn't with Acer vbios. Now I am waiting a 3650. I will let you know if it works.

It worked fine with the HD3650.
If you want to repair it, i bought it from here.
