I am using a HTPC to watch movies on an older plasma TV (LG 60PK990, built in 2010). For this purpose I am using:
a) a wired connection via HDMI cable from the HTPC to the TV b) a wired connection from the audio output of the HTPC to a Denon DRA-F107 stereo receiver + stereo speakers c) a...
Hello!
I have a big problem with one of my computers: the idle temperature of the cpu is pretty high and when I start to use some applications, it starts to overheat immediately. The CPU is not overclocked!
These are the specs:
AMD Athlon X2 5000+
Abit A-N68SV, socket AM2, Nvidia Geforce7025/...
I managed to get an output on the TV. I need to change the resolution of my monitor to 1024x768 and then set the "Clone" setting. Is there a possibility to keep my monitor at 1280x1024 and still use "Clone" with my TV? Because it is kind of annoying to always switch the resolutions before...
Hello!
I acquired a Geforce 6600GT with two DVI outputs with the purpose of having a display output on my monitor and my LCD TV. The monitor is connected via DVI cable directly to one of the outputs and the TV is connected from its RGB input via a VGA-cable+DVI adaptor to the output of the...
Hi!
I am currently running a Core2Duo E6300 (Socket 775) overclocked at 3 Ghz (from 1.8 Ghz). I use air cooling: Arctic Freezer 7 Pro. Unfortunately one the push pins of the heatsink broke off, due to mishandling on my part. Thus, the heatsink is now kind of "shaky" and when I am moving the...
Hello!
I have a Gericom Blockbuster 2440XL notebook and after taking out and cleaning the keyboard, the DVD-RW (Matshita UJ-815-B) stopped working properly. It is recognized in BIOS, it has power and accepts and ejects CDs, however it can't read or write any media. After I insert a disc, I...
I have an update about the issue:
When I play a movie in full screen on my TV and I move the mouse over the menu task bar (the play bar) and that pops up over the movie, I get a perfect picture and no contrast problems. Any ideas?

Hello!
I own an Asus 7600 GT DHT and I have connected it via SCART to the TV. I am living in Germany so the standard here is PAL.
The problem is, that when I watch movies using the TV as primary display (through Clone: TV-Monitor) I get a change of contrast every 6-7 seconds or so. The...
I have 2 fans mounted in the case, one near the power button, and one under the power supply. Not sure about the dimensions (about 8x8 or 9x9 cm).

Hello!
I own a Creative MP3+ external sound card. I used it with a laptop and a microphone and there were no issues. Now I tried the same hardware with my desktop and everything seems to work fine, except the microphone. When I talk to someone over the net, that person hears a loud background...
