Here is the service manual for reference:
http://tim.id.au/laptops/gateway/gateway%20nv53.pdf
Unfortunatley the video controller is integrated into the main board. The service manual details main board replacement.
New main boards can be purchased anywhere. Expect to pay around $150.
Licenses & Certifications: Microsoft, Cisco, VMware, Novell, FCC RF & Amateur Radio licensed.
