windows 7 - No signal to monitor after uninstallation of display driver

I was on the Sony website trying to get the latest display driver for my Sony VAIO laptop. Their instructions told me to uninstall my display driver through add/remove programs in the control panel and to reboot then visit the website and install the latest driver.



Easier said than done, after the uninstall my laptop won't display on the monitor anymore. (My 5yr old dropped my laptop and broke the screen 2 months ago, so I've been using a monitor to display the image ever since.) Even in safe mode the monitor gets no image, although after pressing f8 repeatedly I do hear the windows start up sound.




My model number is VPCCW21FX the video card is NVIDIA GeForce 310 M and my OS is Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I just want to know how to display the image on my monitor so I can install the latest driver and finish the process but I can't see anything since it's broken.
