Anonymous Posted on Oct 02, 2012

What graphics card can be installed in a Sony VAIO VGC-RB30 using Windows 7?

I play games on FB and it freezes up constantly, I need a compatible Windows 7 graphics card on a Sony VAIO VGC-RB30 desktop model, appreciate all suggestions.

    The good news it uses x16 PCI Express. The bad news is I could not find version no. Maybe someone else can confirm Ver 2?You still have to decide on monitor connection interface, and how much you want to spend. Plus, there might be power minimums requirements with high end cards.

SOURCE: Hello, I have a Sony Vaio VGC-V3M and I have just

If you can see the windows logo and get into the bios then it is not the graphics card.

Most likely cause is the os itself, just after post press F8 repeatetly until you have the boot mode page open and choose safe mode, in safe mode do a system restore, goto start bar, programs, accessories, system tools and system restore, and start from a resent restore point. This can can take a while, so be patient and let the computer restore itself until you have the windows screen up.

If the restore dosent work, goto safe mode again, right click on my computer goto properties and enter device manager, in there under display adapters click on the plus sign and uninstall the graphics card, reboot. hope this helps post back if need farther help.

Testimonial: "You were absolutely right, although I had already worked it out. I booted into safe mode, then went straight into devices and reinstalled the driver "

Which video card do i use in a vcg rb50

Dear,
you have pci express slot that supports high graphic card. You can buy a high graphic vga card but it relates with your power supply too. Check your power supply wattage and then buy the vga card accordingly because high graphic vga card require more power from supply.

There are alot of pci slot supported card in the market.

best of luck!

Which video card i can get for gaming on this computer the vgc-rb53 vaio sony computer please help!!

You can fit any PCI Express X16 graphics card into your computer. The biggest issue that you may run into is power requirements. However, the majority of inexpensive graphics cards - ranging in prices under $80 - should be capable of gaming very well. If you're looking to go all out and make an investment in PC gaming, replacing the power supply will make the machine capable of using any video card. 1000 watt power supplies can be found online for around $100.

When I try to start my VGC-RB30 (back from sleep mode or fresh start), computer comes on, but monitor doesn't (or I get the VAIO screen only). Yesterday, I unplugged the computer altogether, then plugged...

Check all of your adapter cards (PCI or AGP or PCIE) to ensure they are seated into the MB properly. As the problem seems video related double check the graphics adapter if it is a stand alone card. AGP cards can be tricky to seat properly on some mb's

Sometimes USB devices will interfere with the bootup of windows XP. Try disconnecting any usb devices you are using, from least important to most important to see if that helps.
