Sorry for resurrecting this thread but I wanted to respond to this statement I also will likely not do any future business with MM. I recently bought a $450 case and am very disappointed with the company. I did lots of research and every review said that these cases are of very high quality...

OK I switched to vga on my new monitor and have the same problem. I'm totally confused. Just to confirm... this SHOULD work right? MPC and VLC don't work either. edit: also, using "always on top" didn't work any other ideas?

Ok I have reinstalled the codecs and video drivers and am still having the problem. Thing is, it worked until I replaced my secondary monitor. Could it have something to do with going from 1600x1200 on the secondary to 1920x1200? My primary has always been 1920x1200. I'm running WinXP Pro...

Thanks I'll try this when I get home tomorrow. I hadn't thought of reinstalling codecs.

I like to play a game on one monitor while a movie or show is running on my secondary monitor. Since getting a new screen to replace my old secondary, the videos just go black when I game. Used to work on old CRT going through VGA. My new monitor is hooked up via DVI. Could this be the...

Thanks for all the replies. The linked handheld scanner looks exactly like what I was imagining, but maybe my shaky hands will create uneven scans (it sounds crazy, being a pianist, but my hands are very shaky - almost like early stages of parkinsons even though that is NOT what it is)...

I'm a piano teacher and sometimes students bring new music to the lessons. I'm hoping to find a compact hand scanner that runs on batteries and does not require a pc-connection to make scans (hold the data on flash perhaps?) This way I can practice a student's music when I get home (after...

Thanks for the advice. I came to the realization that the power management area will also get very hot and it won't be covered by the gpu block. Seems that even if the ram can handle no airflow, the PWM certainly won't.

The topic is self-explanatory! I am being a cheap-ass so I'll find a way to rig my maze4 waterblock onto the gpu. Will the card work with no ramsinks at all? I'm assuming no... If I do put ramsinks (cheap ones) on, will I need to also have a PCI slot fan in order to keep air moving...

What's the deal with mentioning "SMPS text books" 500 times a day?

try adding -nosysteminfo into the command line. Worked for me.

are you sure about this? I was under the impression that this is not yet available to normal users

Where do you get the bios file? Will a standard 4850 bios work in any 4850 card?

exactly ati's been lying about gpu acceleration since the x1000 series I believe just run gpuz and watch the gpu activity rise to a mighty ZERO PERCENT when you run the avivo converter

The package on the amd site does not use the gpu at all. It's just a software encoder that uses cpu.
