all_poison Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Hi there..... The only i see dont working propely is my graphic card. (GEFORCE GO 7600 - 128 ram) The image on my desktop looks great but when I have some windows open and move it around then lots of "following windows is open too". Then i need to minimaze and reopen and the windows is back normal again. the only thing i cannot do is move it around..... I just checked in a safe boot and there is no problem with with my graphic card at all. I can move everywhere.....which is very weird! Safe boot is ok, but with normal boot freak windows. any help will be welcome cheers SONY VAIO - VGN FE31M - 1.8 Intel processor Duo core, 2GG memory, Sigmatel audio card (and Fast Track Pro), Intel WirelessPro, Nvidia Gforce Go 7600 (128 dedicated memory) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/191823-sony-vaio-vgn-fe31m/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
vilpostus Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Do you have any VGA driver installed? Begin with EFI string insertion (OSx86Tools). Then, if no luck try ATI_init or CoreVidia Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/191823-sony-vaio-vgn-fe31m/#findComment-1297689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
