Thanks to anyone who can help on this one, I'm stumped.
I am using an RF remote control device with my Tivo. The thing works great, all through the house, until I turn my PC on. When I turn my PC on (PC, not the monitor), the RF remote stops working. Even if I point the RF device at the base station, which is in a different room than the PC, I get nothing. When the PC is on, the indicator light on the RF device flashes on and off--it's pretty clear it's picking up some interference from the PC--does anyone have any idea what device in the PC could be causing this--I assume the power supply is the key suspect??? Are there any modifications to the PC I can do to limit this? I do not see the same problem when my laptop is running.
The power supply is an Antec 380W True Power--It's an AMD 1800+ running an Epox 8K3A mobo--two HDs, Radeon 9800NP--there is a cathode light in the case and four case fans.
Thanks
