Hey guys, just want to make sure - is this laptop compatibility list exhaustive? http://forum.techinferno.com/diy-e-gpu-projects/4109-egpu-candidate-system-list.html#3rd Or will I be able to run my PE4C-EC100C V2.1 using Express Card on my Sony Vaio VPCF120FD? It has an i5-430m and a Geforce 310m.

Any advice on this guys?

Thank you very much for the detailed post Nando. I was hoping you would be able to help me with this. Regarding the driver download - this is downloaded as an exe. Should I run the exe file instead of manually installing a driver under device manager? I don't know if this will conflict with my gt310m driver. UPDATE: I downloaded the .exe driver which was "344.75-desktop-win8-win7-winvista-64bit-international-whql". After it installed, the GTX 760 was recognized by my PC as a gtx 760 (which made me very excited). I restarted the computer, however it got BSOD when the egpu was plugged in, with the following error: I took out the egpu, but it wouldn't load windows and started windows automatic repair. So I had to "repair" by going back to an earlier point when the driver wasn't installed. I think the .exe might have installed incompatible components, or removed some important files. How should I proceed? Is there any way to download JUST the 760 driver and install manually through device driver? (I couldn't find a driver that wasn't an executable file online).

Hey guys, I feel like I'm so close to getting this egpu to work. I just need some assistance. I got this GTX 760 to be recognized by my Sony VPCF120FD. I'm using a PE4C 2.1b with expresscard. The GTX 760 shows up on my device manager as "Microsoft Basic Display Adapter". I tried to update the driver, but it gave the this error message after downloading and trying to install: Also, here is what I see on GPU-Z As you can see, my gtx 760 shows up as another gt 310m (my dgpu). I'm running Windows 8.1 64 bit. My laptop also has an i5-430m CPU, 2x4gb 1066 ram. Can anyone tell me what to do about this driver installation error? I used the "let windows search online" option to download the driver. Couldn't find a physical gtx 760 driver file to manually update. Is this an OS problem (should I switch to windows 7) or can I do something about it?

Hey all, I was wondering if an Expresscard PE4L 2.1b would be compatible with my sony Vaio VPCF120FD? It's got an expresscard slot, pm55 chipset with intel core i5 430m CPU. Also has a nvidia 310m dgpu.
