    Vista SP-2 is really faster for me !

    Just installed Vista SP2 and it seems, with limited testing and subjective evaluation, that it is a real improvment in speed. It truly "feels" snappy and running a couple of Benchmarks is it is as much as 15% (3dMark 05). It has either "cured" a previous problem with my system or is really...

    Why no PC DVI to Toshiba RSP ?

    My Toshiba 65" RSP has a DVI input but the manual says it is not for PC DVI use. Why, what happens if you try it? Would like to use for some games. Have looked for this answer on AV Forums with no luck. Toshiba does not seem to have any way to question tech support on their website.
