Thank you so much guys! I'm going to purchase a high speed 25ft cable from monoprice and see how that goes. I appreciate the feedback!

I was entertaining the thought of building an HTPC, but I think I can save some money by just extending my current desktop to the TV in my living room which is about a 25ft straight-shot away. I recently bought a cheap 25ft HDMI cable from Newegg, but that didn't turn out too well. The cable...

One of the biggest mistakes I made when I built my current PC was buying an AMD socket 754 cpu when the 939 socket cpus had just become available. I figured I didn't need the high-end performance of a 939 cpu at the time, so I went and got the 754. And while I was right, and my cpu...

I know Sonicks, and we both know Danny (the guy in the article). I think if he read that blotter article, he would piss himself with laughter. Danny was always the kind of guy that figured if he was going to go down, he might as well go down with style, and that's exactly what he did. He was...

I am playing Vegas because I got tired of Gears of War to hold me over until Mass Effect comes out, but what I really cant wait for is Halo 3. I'm sorry. I'm a 360 noob. :cool:

*fingers crossed for Silent Hill 5*

I'll pay S&H if you don't want it.

I'll try the new drivers then. I'll post again if I still get the same problem.

I've adjusted all setting in the control panel in combination with the settings on my monitor, (NEC FE990) and nothing worked. And how can you NOT use the new nVidia interface? Is there an option to use the old interface? I find the new one very annoying.

I'm currently using drivers that were released before the new nVidia control panel was implemented. I was having trouble setting my resolution at 1280x960. No matter what options, configurations, and settings I changed, I couldn't get it to fit the screen properly. Even at max height and width...

Save up for a DX10 card unless you absolutely need a card right now. With games utilizing the Unreal 3.0 Engine coming out soon, you'd be better off just waiting to get a DX10 card. They are not so far away. We should be seeing some released in the next couple of months. 8800 Ultra GTX w/ 2GB...

Since they are both in the same price range, it looks like I have options now. Which one is (I hate to ask this since it's such a vague question) better? I'm mainly looking for something to control the volume and not interfere with the sound too much. I would also like something with long...

aren't postal offices closed on weekends?

Thanks for the responses.
