Unfortunately on a netbook that is impossible. You just cant change the video card. Youd need an entirely new computer or motherboard.

My work schedule is as follows: Mon and Tues 1800 to 0600, Friday - Sunday 1800EST to 0600, and Wednesday to Thursday 1800est to 0600. So if I do not respond right away I am at work.

I don't even know...how did all started.
It can't be lose connection it just happened recently.
I spilled root beer on my netbook almost 2 months ago. (it was a little).
Will that be the cause? Or no? I cleaned it out already and what not though.

That can cause issues due to the acid contents of soda.

What issues can it cause. The root beer I spilled was days old. No gas what so ever. I cleaned it out fast...

It can melt the layer of plastic on PCB or circuit board, and that can cause a short.
