Hello Muhamad86;

Acer Aspire 4540 Notebook Specifications

Video Subsystem: Mobile Intel GS45 Express Chipset with integrated 3D graphics, featuring Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD

You're not going to be able to upgrade the graphics. The GMA 4500HD is your graphics chip and there is no option for a graphics card upgrade.

Integrated Radeon HD 4200 graphics can not be updated. It's soldered to the motherboard.

CPU Upgrade Advisor could not find upgrade information for that motherboard.
