<0> try to make it to work with dvi, or composite hdmi ???
<1> i don't like a monitor over 19" lcd for the pc
<2> if you like the samsung give it another shot at working with your pc
<3> you need powerstrip btw on that 6800gt to make it work right on a hdtv
<3> thats what i originally thought your problem was
<0> TimeWalk the picture is just super clean
<1> for my pc i like my samsung 913v lcd :)
<0> yeah so which brand is the best in normal lcd monitors
<2> i thought there was a prob with the 6800gt
<0> I thought about lg
<1> and when i watch tv shows on here they look great
<2> but i couldn't find it on google
<4> lil: i have a 913v lcd great monitos
<0> its true they samsung too
<3> purevideo you're talking about
<0> what about widescreen lcd
<3> 6600gt is hardware vs 6800's software
<1> yeah mixman they sure are nice
<1> mine is from Sams Club =]
<4> can't remember where i got mine
<0> timewalk: I have the top of the line 6800gt .. not the crappy model
<1> mine was a b-day prez hehe
<3> doesnt matter what you have, its still a 6800gt chip
<4> but also i have my bad boy IBM P260 21" monitor
<0> timewalk what do you think the 7900gtx 512mb will do more for me ? I am playing all game at high level with no problem, at least practilly all of them except maybe oblivion
<3> im not talking about framerate
<3> im talking about the purevideo decoder
<0> so ?
<3> which really has nothing to do with what you're trying to do, it was directed to Harlock
<3> you decided to chime in on how you have the "uber" gt which like i said doesnt matter whatsoever
<0> I thought you were talking to me
<0> starting ot get tired ... just want that screen to work lol
<3> why didnt it work the first time
<0> we aren't sure
<3> you use dvi to dvi
<0> it isn't supporting that
<3> if the tv has vga input, you can use that, but dvi is better
<3> why not
<0> the screen for pc input
<3> its probably your computer, not the tv
<0> the tv as all the input you can think of , but seem to accept only vga as pc input
<3> you need to set an option in the control panel, something like compensate for overscan or something like that, and set a customm resolution
<3> oh
<3> then what i just said will fix that
<3> you need a piece of software called powerstrip, and make sure you're using forceware 70+
<0> that's what written in the user manual, just use a dsub wire with vga
<0> I am using the latest forceware
<3> get powerstrip, and check that option
<3> then dvi to dvi will work
<0> what's that powerstrip your talking about ? what do you think is the problem
<3> its a resolution problem
<3> powerstrip can handle complete custom resolutions
<0> so you think that's why I saw the boot but not windows
<3> its not as easy as setting 1024x768 and expeting it to show on a hdtv
<3> first of all, thats a 4:3 resolution, you need 16:9
<3> thats what powerstrip allows you to do
<3> google is your friend btw
<0> 3.49 is the latest ?
<3> i dont know, i can afford to have both computer monitors and a hdtv ;)
<3> ?? powerstrip
<3> there you go
<3> even saved you a google search
<0> I have it installed already
<0> so I can setup more things in details with that
<3> yes
<1> is there any diff between the quake4 cd version and dvd version other than the disc it comes on ?
<0> and your sure I'll be able to make the hdtv work
<3> no
<0> lil no
<3> just 1 disc vs 4
<1> thx
<3> or however many it is
<1> what is the bonus disc?
<1> yeah it says 4 for cd
<3> no idea
<0> timewalk so you'll setup a lcd and the tv on both dvi ?
<1> ah okie
<0> so I try to make the tv work while working on the others ?
<3> what do you mean, i thought you were getting a single display
<0> yes
<0> but there at the shop they have like 20 lcd and 30 hdtv ;)
<0> I can play with some to make things work hehe
<3> have fun, each one probably has a slightly different native resolution :)
<1> ah the bonus disc has game trailers some other goodies and quake 2
<0> time the lcd work right away
<0> I mean to setup the hdtv
<3> lcd monitor?
<0> yeah
<3> of course
<3> its a monitor
<3> wtf
<0> so I can see something instead of waiting about the hdtv
<0> timewalk let me reboot 2 secs
<1> i must say i was amazed when we got our big screen and hooked up the hdtv part how you felt like you would walk right into the tv picture it looks so real
<3> yeah
<1> a 2 sec reboot hehe
<3> 2 secs is gone, im done helping :P
<1> hehe
<3> time for some ice cream, brb
<1> =]
<0> ok I have powerstrip up and running
<1> [01:55] <3> time for some ice cream, brb
<3> www.avsforums.com for needed resolutions and such, from what i saw from my quick reading is that different hdtv's (lcd especially) have different resolutions
<3> there is no plug and play so to say yet
<0> I understand
<0> what can I do now
<3> you're not connected to a hdtv, so nothing
<0> it seem like there is not many options
<3> ?? rtfm

<0> anyways I'll be back tomorrow
<0> yeah I know
<3> karamel sutra... big thing of caramel in the middle, vanilla on one side, and chocolate on the other
<0> I'll check the monitors back tomorrow morning and I 'll get a nice lcd maybe 2, if we can't make it to work while changing the resolution
<3> hmm, its getting light outside
<3> ice cream for breakfast
<1> foodnetwork said they are in the top 10 all time places to pig out they have a think at their shop they server called the vermont monster I guess most people can only make a dent it in
<0> 'cause want it or not, it's good if everything work well, but what will happen when my comp won't work, and I'll need the monitors to display others resolution .. I'll be stuck maybe, and won't be able to re install
