Help....purchased an AGP video card for my Sony PCV-RX755 (I have an onboard video card now). Went to the Sony site and found this note:

If a PCI video card was installed, both video adapters will be available at this time for multiple monitor support.

If the computer shipped with an onboard video adapter, the onboard video adapter cannot be disabled in the systen BIOS. Because of this, the add on PCI video card can only be used as a secondary video card, and not the primary one.
If the computer shipped with an AGP video card, either a PCI or AGP card can be used as an upgrade.


This can't be true can it? Somebody out there...I could use some help!!

Thanks in advance!!

 
Install the card, and in the vido settings the computer will show two screend. Right click on the on the screen that is not defult and select "make defult" then moove the monitor cable to your VGA card.
This should do the trick.
