The only usable Video input you have is HDMI. You have a composite video input but this is usually for importing video to your hard disc.

Does your Virgin Media Box have a HDMI output?

I think it has (but not absolutely sure). If so, you just connect by HDMI cable and switch the screen mode to HDMI In.

Try pressing the "Input Select" button to switch to HDMI input. It is the button on the right of your Vaio - just under the DVD tray (top one of 5 buttons)

Have a look at Pages 13, 53 and 53 of your User Manual - downloadable from here: -
