Update #2 - TerraPhantm, I finally had time to test your recommendation, and it worked! The monitor running HDMI-to-DVI through the receiver works just fine!

OK, a bit of an update: TerraPhantm - I thought more about passing the HDMI signal back to the monitor, but my monitor resolution is 1680x1050. I am not sure the receiver can output a 16:10 signal. I received my active DP->DVI adapter yesterday. I had purchased this one...

See, I'm glad I posted, because for some reason I was not thinking of hooking it up this way! It should work this way, I will update after my adapter arrives from Amazon.

Hi All, I have a Sapphire HD 5850, with 2x DVI, 1x HDMI, 1x DisplayPort. I have 2 DVI monitors, and recently got a 7.1 Onkyo receiver. I had hooked up the receiver to the computers' onboard optical audio port, but then realized that the best I'd get is 5.1, not 7.1. I will have to use the...

Already using encryption. The fluctuation occurs with anything fetching data from the internet. Right now I'm downloading a 500MB game on Steam, my connection peaks at 1.5, slows down to 200-300, and oscillates between until the download is complete. I have not changed settings on my end...

Some background: Win7 Pro, i7 930 machine, wired connection For several months the machine and the network performance were fine. If downloading a well-seeded torrent, or file from usenet, I could max out my internet connection (1.5 MBps). For the past several weeks my download speed has not...

xenios, I am not familiar with how to get to the preinstallation environment. I tried shift + F10 when the windows 7 setup disk was booting at startup but could not get there. I followed a guide online that cleared the CBS MUM and Catalog corruptions, now I am left with the CSI manifest...

Count me in!

In for two!

Any ideas?

I figured I should include a few more specs aside from what is in my sig. The install was of Windows XP 32 bit, slipstreamed with SP3. Before the nforce drivers were installed, this wasn't an issue, as there was no network driver installed. As soon as the network driver was installed, this...

I just did a clean format of my computer, and installed the basic drivers (nforce mobo drivers, latest version, and nvidia graphics drivers, latest version). Upon startup, a few of my system tray icons load (nvidia control panel, for example), followed by a 30-second delay, after which...

How does that not make any sense? And besides, the issue is not with the order in which I am turning things on. As long as the TV is on and "booted up" (for lack of a better term), I can turn on the receiver and cable box in any order. The issue is with not being able to set delays...
