I've just built my HTPC and I'm using Vista 64 Home Premium. I have it output to my BenQ W500 projector via HDMI. What I want to know is, are my SD DVD's upscaled to 720P in Windows Media Center since that's the resolution I have my PC set at. This projector will upscale 480P to 720P from an...

I've been following the Car PC movement and I'm currently building my own. The [H] forums are usually the first place I'll check for PC info and help. I'm a little disappointed that there is not much action on that here. I know about Mp3car.com but I'm hoping to bring out some other Car PC...

Can the DVD drive in an XBOX be replaced? My friend has an XBOX and is getting dirty disc errors with a few different games including a new one he just bought. Can we pick up a IDE DVD drive and pop it in? I was thinking that a slim drive will fit.

How can i capture streaming video? I think it's flash based video. Or is there a souped up clipboard program where I can just print screen a number of times consecutively? I'm after quality more than frame rate. Of course this involves pOrn.

OK, so I must have had a brain fart. I think my Windows CD went bad. I just replaced my mobo and cpu. BB had a good deal on a Seagate HD, 120 GB for $40 AR. I can always use another drive and I fucked up my other one anyway. So I installed the drive, and I have the windows CD in the CDROM...

My pc recently started locking up. I can smell something like it's burning. I underclocked my CPU and I can still smell it and my pc will run for 20 min and lock up. I'm guessing my cpu is overheating. I have a M AthlonXP 2600+ 45W on a Epox 8R3DA+ cooled with a Dr. Thermal HS with a TMD...

I'm really interested in getting a couple WMV HD DVD's. But I'm concerned about the HW req. MS says a 2.4 Ghz processor or equivalent. Does that mean an Athlon 2400+ would be considered an equivalent? I only have a 1700+ OC'd to 1667 Mhz but I'm willing to upgrade the CPU provided it's...

My system is starting to show its age. I'd like to upgrade my video card to improve gaming performance and alsoo to squeeze out another year out of my mobo. I need an AGP part, so I've been looking at the 6600GT that have hit the $200 mark. But NEWEGG is now offering an AOPEN 6600 w/256 MB...
