I have a VGN-FS630/W and i am trying to use an external monitor, brand Envision, i got it working but it got disconected and now all i get is a White screen on my external monitor and my laptops screen works perfectly fine. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Hummmm.... are you sure your cable is good? Can you try connecting with another cable?...

Check the cable CONNECTORS and be sure NO pins are pushed back into the molded body. All should pins should be quite 'flush' with the outer connector metal frame.

Does your display work if you connect your cable and monitor to another system?

Gee I'm trying to envision a LCD display and it's associated electronics AND your SVGA connector?... I mean I know they both process video, but they should be independent of each other?

I have a newer TOSHIBA that had a LCD so trashed it kept dumping junk from the display... So I cut the display hinges OFF and cut the supporting cables to it too... hoping for no shorts!

That system is still working GREAT ~ with a external monitor... and no Wi-Fi and sorry that does not really help you.

Hi,

That model laptop will take anything up to 500GB and yes you can upgrade now or whenever you want.


Regards.

Computer is shipped with 512MB, PC-2700, 333MHz DDR (256MB x 2) RAM and Expandable up to 1GB max.

You can refer the page # 145 in the VAIO User Guide to install the RAM in the Computer.

go to sony.com and follow the links to install specific drivers for your laptop, each manifacturer provides their own drivers for their laptops or pc`s.. good luck

Sounds like you may have 2 problems, that is
1) corrupted windows installation or faulty Hard drive causing the constant reboot.
2) faulty CD drive or dirty laser or dirty disks.

You could try pressing F10 when you see the vaio logo which will take you to the HDD based recovery options.
Test your cd/dvd disks in another machine to make sure they are o.k if they are you can try cleaning laser in cd drive.
Or if the disks are o.k and your cd drive is faulty you could use an external usb cd drive and set the bios to boot from an external drive.

boot files are corrupt or missing....
try re-installing OS

Hi,
The best thing you can try is a Static discharge.
Please remove all the external devices. Unplug the power adaptor.Remove the battery. There should be no electricity connected.
Then press the power button and keep your finger on it for about 30 seconds to release any build up electricity.
Plug in the adaptor and battery again and see if there is still a problem.
Maybe is a good idea to get a surge protector in the future.
