    retail or oem

    You might want to check but I think retail gets the full warranty, while oem stuff usually get a 60 or 90 day warranty. Like I said check on it, but I know it's like that on most other things.

    I am looking at the elite keyboard also and was ready to go ahead after all of the good reviews I had read, but, there are a couple of posts on Amazon that say this keyboard is loaded with spyware from Gator. Has anyone had this problem?

    Decoder

    What is the best Dolby Digital/DTS Decoder for under $200? I'm looking for a stand alone that will compliment my M-Audio Revolution 5.1 or 7.1 sound card. Also, my dvd player has a digital out, but I don't think it decodes, would that be a conflict with the stand alone decoder?

    Sound Card Set-Up Question

    Thanks guys, it's just the difference of watching on a 17" screen and watching on a 36" screen. You know, the bigger the better, LOL. I think my problem is the only connection to my obviously antiquated tv is the cable connection, thus I have to jump through all these hoops to get where I'm...

    Sound Card Set-Up Question

    OK, here's the deal. I have an RF Modulator that has a line going to my one tv connection and the other going to my tv out on my cable box. My line in on my sound card is going to the audio out on my dvd. My dvd also has a digital audio out that is not being used. So, I guess what I'm asking...

    Sound Card Set-Up Question

    Well, I have a little black box (Philips/Magnnavox) that has the #3 and #4 channel settings that is in the mix somewhere. Like I said, I couldn't do it again. I also have a cable box but I think I can bypass that. The main thing I think, and the reason it was such a bitch to get everything...

    Hey guys, how much of an upgrade would the utlras be over my Altec Lansing ADA 995 5.1 system? I mainly use them for watching dvd's and music, not much gaming. Would it be a big enough difference considering the price? I imagine I could sell my Altecs for something on Ebay to help out. Also...
