    Why does DVI/HDMI look worse than VGA on my HDTV

    A lot of the samsung tvs seem to overscan on dvi/hdmi, mine used to as well. When on the dvi source, go into image settings for the tv and see if there's a "Just Scan" mode. That does 1:1 but it's not default. If it doesn't have it there may be an updated firmware for your tv to get it (as...

    http://www.silicondust.com/wiki/hdhomerun/channels Put in your area code. 8vsb is ota atsc, qam256 is your qam channels. You're not guaranteed to get all of them but it should give you an idea.

    8 Gig makes my system unstable

    Had the same issue. Upping memory and mch voltage didn't help. What do you have your memory ratio set at?

    What to do as the 8800gt is nonexistant???

    Buy a cheap $20-$40 card now to test all your stuff, then wait a couple weeks for availability to drop the price on the 8800gt. I know it's a pain to wait (waiting myself as I'll be getting one as a gift for someone), but it's not worth it right now. Also, having a spare pci-e vid card is...

    PC Card & Fan Controller + SLI

    Your just mixing things up a little. Pci-e is the newer standard, and while it sounds similar to pci, it's significantly different. The fan controller will use pci, so so long as you have an open pci slot, you're fine.

    GA-P35C-DS3R & Sleep Mode Problems

    Try going into device manager, down at the bottom are the usb controllers. In there, go to your root hubs and in their properties go to power and see which one your hard drive is on (may just say composite device, hopefully it'll give the device name for the hdd). Then go to power management...

    LCDs:At what ms responce time does ghosting start showing up

    Posted speeds may not even be accurate, as it could differ from panel to panel. Also, which specific speed they advertise is not always apparent. The 2407 that I have is a "16 ms" monitor, but that's black to white, it's actually "6ms" grey to grey, which is what most manufacturers use for...

    8800GTX Talking In Morse Code?

    It requires a power supply with atleast 30A total from the +12V. From your specs I'm gonna guess you have the same supply that I do. It's more then enough to run a single gtx, of course depending on the rest of your hardware. Assuming you do have the same one (PPC Turbocool 510 Express/SLI...

    8800GTX graphic glitch

    Both 97.28 and 97.44 have an issue with 2 of the 3 mem clock generators (one for each 256mb domain) not reaching target speed (900mhz stock for gtx) and instead leaving them at 396mhz. So games that use large textures and tend to use a lot of vram are going to have distortions/corruptions like...

    DUAL RAILS

    To summarize it, multiple rails are a "safety feature", nothing more. Unless it's an incredibly expensive psu, all the power for all the rails comes from the same source, it's just spread out on the rails and limiters are put in place to keep the amperage at or below 20. As long as you're...

    A8N-SLI Premium SATA hard disk problem

    What he ^ said. You have to go into the nvraid config in the bios and shut it off, and while you're doing that you may as well disable the silicon raid since it's not being used. If that absolutely doesn't work, you can try installing onto the raptor with the ide drives disconnected, as...
