I don't want to spend extra cash for a tv so I am planning to connect my ps3 with my pc monitor and pc speakers. My PC monitor is the 22" Samsung Syncmaster 220wm. The monitor comes with 1 vga and 1 dvi cable. I currently have it connected to my computer using the dvi cable since my video card...

thanks for the advice. i was messing around and i restarted and it went to a black screen to ask me which os i wanted to load. i loaded up windows 7 and just deleted the partition where i accidently had installed vista in. :D problem solved.

how would i make it my primary harddrive the first to boot. in boot options i only see that it can go from cd drives, to sata drives, to usb.

I am a noob at this. I wasn't paying attention and reinstalled vista on my storage harddrive and now I cant go back to original OS on my original harddrive cause my secondary harddrive became the new "C" drive. so how do i uninstall/remove the OS from my secondary harddrive???

For the past few months I have been unable to put my computer to sleep. The monitor connection would go off but the desktop itself wont go off. And then I would have to manually turn off the computer because it won't turn back on on my monitor. My desktop is a Dell XPS 420 w/ the Windows 7 Beta...

I highly doubt that the games will demand much from our computers. Whenever a beta or w/e is announced for either game, thats whenever I will buy my graphics card xD The most I would spend would probably be in the low hundred's since I mainly am buying it for just those two games.
