Hey all,
My dad owns his own business and just had his 7 year old desktop crap out on him. He has requested my help in finding another. All he does is look at appraisal reports, surf the internet, and listen to music on his computer. I know there are more than likely a few threads around...
on amazon it says that the refurbished one carries a 1 year warranty just like the new one....im looking into this remote as well now at this great price
anyone have any experience with this working with windows vista?
I unplugged my IR receiver for my MCE remote and it goes to sleep just fine. I saw on another forum that this was causing problems for him getting his computer to sleep. I would like to be able to leave my remote reciever plugged in though. He said he disabled the IR receiver from Hauppage and...
When I try to get my computer to go to sleep it goes to sleep then wakes immediately. I looked at the event log and it says Wake Source is USB Root Hub
Any ideas on how to fix this? I saw something about usb and sleeping on forums somewhere a few days back but couldn't find it again so...
I tried that, the options should be right under pci express but there is nothing there. That is why i am confused.
I am also having problems getting my computer to sleep.
AMD Cool n Quiet doesn't seem to work on vista because vista supposedly has built in control. However, when I go to use this there are no processor options that show up. Do I have to enable cool n quiet in the bios?
Also if my computer is in sleep and/or hibernate will it still be able to...
back home now
changing the refresh rate got rid of the line problem
still have the "catching up" and i forced v-sync on
catching up also happens with play/pause on recorded content
I figured there were some features and options I needed to play around with to make this work. I use the guide and love it, I was just saying that changing channels does the same thing as pausing and unpasuing live tv in that it has to "catch up"
The line is about 3/4 of the way up the scrren...
The "catching up" still happens on the lcd monitor, but the line is not there. I optimized it for my tv inside VMC and it made it choppy all the time and it was generally worse.
Just installed my TV tuner Hauppage pvr 500 MCE
The picture quality isn't up to what I thought it would be, its just standed definition cable on a 27 inch tv. Occasionally there is a line in the middle of the screen. Is this becuase of refresh rates? How do I fix that?
Sometimes the...
Thanks for the replies!
So you don't think it is worth it to make a 100gb partition for windows and apps then use the other 150gb and my new 500gb for media?
Is 100gb going to be enough for windows and apps?
I am upgrading my computer from XP to vista home premium to turn it into a HTPC. I would like to start completely fresh so I plan on reformatting the hard drive when I start. Do you create different petitions when you install windows? I didn't do this last time with my original build but I have...
ok thanks! so you would go with Vista home premium then?
If I go with vista am I going to need more ram?
This computer will only be being used for HTPC functions
