Hi all, I'm trying to playback hi-def movie files from my laptop to my HDTV and I'm getting poor picture quality via HDMI. A static image (i.e., desktop) looks fine, but whenever a video is playing (youtube, VLC, XBMC, etc), there is a what I can only describe as a horizontal ripple or wave...

I have an older desktop that recently had its only installed HD crash. I have replaced the drive and re-installed my OS (Vista 32-bit). My problem is, after a seemingly random amount of time, the system will lock up and reboot. Upon trying to reboot, the following error is displayed...

Hey guys, I recently had my HD crash. I purchased a new drive, installed it, and re-installed Vista Home Premium (32-bit). All was going fine until I tried to re-install the driver for my Creative X-Fi Xtreme Gamer. No matter what I do, the system hangs during the installation of this...

Hey guys, I could use some help. I just picked up a spiffy new Lenovo Ideapad notebook and am having some issues connecting to my home network. I am running a DLink wireless router which I haven't had any problems with before. My new notebook detects the network, but while connecting to it...

I recently upgraded to an 8800 GTX. All my games play nice with it except for Bioshock. I am running a 22" 226BW, and I when I started up the game it would be set at 1024x768. Whenever I tried to change any of the graphic settings, including resolution, the game would minimize itself and kick...

So I wasn't sure if this should go here in Displays, or in the Video Cards section, so mods, please move it if you think it should be moved. I'm running a Samsung 226BW and a Samsung 173s from my EVGA 7900 GS KO (stock). 226BW via DVI, 173S via VGA. Ultramon v.2.7.1, Vista Home premium...

So I'm thinking about shelling out for an EVGA 8800 GTS 512. NCIX has one with Crysis for $340 after MIR. I am currently running: P180 Asus P5B Deluxe E6400 @ 2.8 ghz EVGA 7900 GS KO Silverstone Strider ST75F 226BW so I don't think power/bottlenecking should be an issue. So far I...

yes, i know i am a huge loser, and yes, this thread will probably fail miserably, but i'm starting it anyway! HOORAY FOR ME! anyway the other night i had dream i was _in_ gears of war. i was in a very large, open area, taking cover up against this tiny slab of concrete, and there were...

Hi guys, I have a legit copy of Gears, been playing it off and on for the past few weeks. Yesterday I went to play some and got the standard "there is an update available" message. So I tell it to update and it kicks me back to my desktop and launches my Asus BIOS update program. Whatever...

I broke off part of the SATA connector on my Seagate 320g 7200.10 tonight (don't ask). It still boots (thank god, I am backing everything up now), but I've had to secure the connection with.. well, electrical tape. I'm looking to get a replacement drive asap and have a few questions 1)...

Yeah. I am pretty disappointed at this latest turn of events. I bought Bioshock on Saturday morning and enjoyed it for a good 2 days. Now, when I click my 'Games Explorer', a new empty window will flash on the screen for about a half second and then go away. When I try to run Bioshock off the...
