    Sony VAIO VGN NR31JS Graphics Problem


    Hi,

    I've recently purchased a Sony VAIO VGN NR31JS it comes with Vista Key but i purchased windows 7 for it.

    When i install Windows 7 the graphics card is shown as a standard vga adaptor, so i tried several drivers from the Sony site (which were for vista) and the from laptopvideo2go.com

    Every time i install the drivers upon restarting the screen courpts and the windows logo appears broken up and flickers then i see a broken up flickering blue screen.

    Am i using the wrong driver? Or is it a physical hardware problem?

    Thanks

    You need to download gfx card's driver from the official site (Nvidia or ATI/AMD)
    What card do you have exactly?

    I tried that also, and it said it was unable to find a compatible card on the system.

    The Card is a 8400m GT

    That method has never worked flawlessly...
    This is what u need.
    Choose to do a custom install and check 'perform clean install' and uncheck 'HD audio driver' if avaialble.

When I first downloaded Windows 7, the resolution was something like 1024 x 786 (or whatever the number order is). I was told to update my video card, but since I can't afford to do that, I dealt with it. It was annoying, but I got used to it. A few months later, I turned on my computer and it had...
