    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    I may. I plan to have a nice long convo with the supervisor since they have Americans on call for people who know their shit. I may even go back to using HP's cord, as the MSI one is nice, but bulky. I'll just commit to getting an S-Video cord, so it looks decent. I just wanted to play CSS...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    WELL, MSI came through, and sent me the REAL cable. BUT apparantly the OEM graphics card doesn't support HD or component. I hooked it up, set my nView settings, and NOTHING. I'm apparantly shit out of luck. SO I'll just call HP and demand a 50 dollar check for assorted converters...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    I finally got my HP FedEx (the MSI one has been sitting at a California FedEx office for 2 days now) and guess what, they didn't send me the S-Video/Composite Adapter! THEY SENT ME A SINGLE VIDEO CABLE! One fucking yellow cord. Insultingly incompetent. As soon as the real part comes...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    Exactly. I asked them if a third party DVI to component adapter would work, and they said yes. I mean honestly. I better get a check.

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    MSI called me back and I just put an order in for the cord, 15 bucks with FedEx shipping. Assuming it works, I will call back HP and demand a supervisor, then relay that over the course of 3 phone calls, HP tech support has told me: - The card doesn't support a component out cable - The...

    DVD software and HD upconverting.

    Any idea as to whether or not Windows Media Player technically upconverts DVDs played on a PC? I have a media center, soon to be connected to my HDTV. And until Blu-Ray hits, an upconverted DVD is the closest thing to full HD I can get from my home theater. Anyone know the nuts and bolts...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    Well, it's a matter of the resolutions working moreso than the component being detected. nView has options for TV out at 1080i, so I can safely assume the card supports it. Or at least the software. I think it will all end up okay. I just want to figure out how I can get the most cash out of...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    Indeed. I did call MSI, but I had to leave a message. Literally RIGHT after hanging up on Hadji at HP, I get a call from MSI. For 15 bucks I buy the cable directly from him and they don't gurantee that it will work with an OEM card. However, it looks JUST LIKE the regular MSI 6600 that...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    The real Americans directed me back to India, and the guy just said he'd ship out the cable. However, I have a suspicion that after all of this I'll get another regular S-Video/composite cable. At which time I will fly to India and go psycho on the HP Customer Support building. Hour and a...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    I'm on the phone with HP now. Been on the phone for 30 minutes. The lady at HP is retarded, since she's Indian and outsourced and has no idea what she's doing. After 25 minutes of talking in circles, I get her to look up my card in the HP database and she fully admits it says HDTV and I...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    Checked newegg, dude. Before I even made the thread. They don't sell one. I did however find one: http://monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10401&cs_id=1040114&p_id=2525&seq=1&format=2&style= That claims to be ATi only. I don't see how a 9 pin could be manufacturer specific...

    Does nVidia make a DVI - component converter for a 6600?

    Well, interestingly enough, I have the nine pin, and the mystery is solved. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814127191 That's my card. And I Didn't get the approriate converter cord. I got a regular S-Video/Composite, and not the one I was supposed to get. HP screwed me...

    ATi DVI to HDTV converter

    I have a 6600 that came along with my HP media center (the PC in question). I really haven't bothered to open up the case and look at the sticker so I can't tell you the precise model. Just a 256 meg 6600 PCIe.
