That's nice of the article to say, however they fail to mention which law one would be breaking via the use of such software. Could someone please enlighten me on this subject? I use software with similar functionality all the time in my job for legitimate data recovery purposes, is there...

I own the Creative X-Fi Elite Pro, which driver pack grants you the ability to encode to Dolby Digital Live (for games) without needing to purchase the Dolby Digital Live Pack separately? I'm kinda against paying to enable a feature of my soundcard. Did the original release of Daniel Ks...

Hello, I'm in the market to purchase a nice new LCD TV to replace my Dell 2007WFP and have a few questions if someone would be so kind. As I understand it, LCD TV's produced for certain markets which feature an internal 100hz refresh rate accomplish this by generating "fake" or "artificial"...

Regarding HDMI for use in a HTPC setup: Thanks everyone or your informative replies in my thread, I've just got a couple more questions if you would be so kind. You might be aware that the Radeon HD 5870 videocard has been released, which seems to be an all- in-one solution to my HTPC...

Aemsere, Multichannel PCM over HDMI, I never even thought about it! This technology would seemingly solve any issues at all with transferring audio generated from PC games to a receiver. Here's a few questions that immediately spring to my mind though: 1.) Since were keeping the signal PCM...

I can't comment on the MX6021, but I own the FX6021 and will share my opinion, for what its worth. Basically, this speaker system certainly produces far above "average" quality sound and verges into the territory of a "proper" bookshelf + amp combo. It will bring a smile to your face for sure...

From what I've read, no PC game is programmed to produce a Dolby encoded bitstream via its own software - this is a separate and independent encoding function of your soundcard known as "Dolby Digital Live". Now, since "Dolby Digital" is a compressed and "lossy" digital audio format I'd like...

Even though this thread is clearly retarded, I’d just like to comment that I’ve moved from using a 22 inch CRT for years down to a 20 inch widescreen LCD and I actually like the reduced vertical space. I ran them both side by side and almost found myself “looking up” on the CRT to see what I...

Hey guys, just like to share a positive experience I had with Dell. The first 2007WFP I received was an S-IPS panel, but it had 3 stuck green pixels, only one was very noticeable though - I posted about this a few pages back. Fired off a quick email to Dell Customer Support, they asked for...

Also see what I hoped to be the Final Thread on this issue: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1198249 I’ve purchased a Dell 2007WFP (which arrives on Monday) after using CRT’s all my life, mainly because I want a widescreen display and I’m sure it will look better than my highend CRT...

Thanks for clearing that up ToastyX, but can anyone tell me why not many LCD manufacturers are currently producing displays with higher supported refresh rates to match their advertised response times? Since they are a digital device, could it be some sort of internal memory buffer issue...

After a lot of googling I’ve read many contradicting view points on this issue (even on this forum), so I thought I’d create a hardocp account and ask this question one last time, sorry. There seems to be two different prevailing opinions: Opinion 1) - Say we have an LCD with a response...
