Sorry to ask a dumb question, but we are still using 1900x1200 on this gateway as my ebay purchased ati radeon x1900 was lost in the mail. So 1:1 refers to the 2550x1600 is that correct? My wife says she likes the 1900 res just fine but I told her that the 2550 would be much clearer. She then...

Yes, the Dish receiver has two tuners built into it, one for my main tv and the other is for the gateway, I ran the coax to the gateway and so I guess I don't really need a second tuner, except for the conversion from coax to vga or component video, but I'll hook it anyway that I can to get it...

oh, I have an old vcr laying around....very interesting.....I think I can at least get it connected and see how good/bad it is. Then to see if I can get all the Dish Network channels using a vcr. Thanks great idea.

I wasn't clear, I ran about 85 feet of plain old coax cable, like what cable and dish and directv use and they run it into a tuner box of some kind. I have a Dish 622 tuner and it has a option of running coax out to a second tv and this would work on a tv or monitor that had a coax input, but...

I need help and wasn't sure if I can get the problem fixed or not. I have the XHD and I ran coax to it and then I went, "oh no", no coax connection. I wanted to use the HDMI for the PS3, the DVI for the computer, so is my next best connection component video? Is there a way running the coax...

Mine's a Nov model too, so that blackout issue is a bit scary to hear about. New or old issue as someone else mentioned it a week or so.... Calibrating this monitor, I was thinking of getting the Spyder2Pro and it wants to be able to adjust the RGB channels individually and the White...

Vega, As sad as you must feel, I'd return the display too, I mean try the shorter cable, but you have problem of a different order, get a later date and definitely get the 3 yr warr as well. I hope you are right on the graphics card for my problem, I went ahead and bought the ATI X1900 for...

Well, my wife and I hooked up her new Gateway to her Mac Quad G5 with a Nvidia 7800GT and we were stunned. This is an amazing display. Beautiful doesn't do it justice. The product tour that is built in is fantastic but we are having some problems that Windows users may not experience. There a CD...

Oh boy my Gateway has Shipped!!! But naturally I have to ask about something, I saw on the Gateway website that EzTune is only for the PC, is this correct? How can my wife calibrate or use PiP if you can only set it up with a PC? Any ideas or workarounds?

"I Learn Stuff Here." Nuff Said

Vega how long? And what brand of cables? This may not be your problem but I am replacing all my HDMI to HDMI and HDMI to DVI cables (in prep of getting my Gateway and PS3 working nicely together) and I love the quality of the Blue Jean cables I got. On my entertainment system I have...

Wow, Vega....Really Nice Review.....I can't wait to get my monitor, err..my Wife's monitor. I was having some anxiety about the color gamut and you have put those fears to rest. Thanks a lot.

That is a great link, although you really need a PC and just the right combination of components to make these drives work to their full potential. I liked this thread the best...just in case anyone else was inspired to get one of these drives...

I'd like to piggyback on Kill's question with one even more basic. I have a DFI motherboard: Board: DFI Corp,LTD LP NF4 Series 1.0 Bus Clock: 194 megahertz BIOS: Phoenix Technologies, LTD 6.00 PG 04/06/2006 and I don't understand from reading the DFI website what kind of CPU I can...
