seems more like a taskbar refresh problem, happens if a rogue program, has a dll, which overwrites current dll's for display or explorer.exe. Does not seem like a virus or a trojan issue.

My two bit, I would not move to a SEC case from an all aluminum. The SLB is an all Aluminum case, i would move to a 830 ideally ;-) Even a plusview 2 is a SEC case. If you are in a costal city like mumbai, a SEC case looks really bad after 2 years. The advantage of an all alum, is that you...

I know its a TN panel and not that hot but the Viewsonic VG2030wm is at around 19K. not a bad price for 20"

Is the price 2200 base or is it inclusive of tax and freight? As far as i know there would be 10% CST and 5.5% Octroi as tax. Can you check with SMC. I think there is a disconnect in the final landed price in mumbai. unless ofcourse like easy, you are getting it picked locally in delhi and then...

absolutely right. It is the standard MCE remote. It came with the haupagge, but it is a Microsoft OEM. The same thing is bundled with some copies of MCE 2005.

I bought it in mumbai, cost me 4750 a year back for the OEM with remote. The Hauppauge comes with a remote sensor - an Infra red receiver. At the back of the receiver is a jack for something called as an IR blaster. This is a small infra red emitter (not receiver) which is like a led with a...

if you need to use a VIVO and record, then there is no requirement for Tuner card at all. The topic said suggestions for a Tuner. If its a HTPC or Tuner design, then the ability use EPG effectively also the Tuner remote is of primary importance. If its just video you want to capture, then...

Just put in a post of how to configure a MCE compliant card to work with a STB or Sat TV. Another thing it helps with is get the number of remotes down to minimum. my recommendation is buying a hauppauge. Its MCE compliant and works like a charm with most of the STB and Sat providers...

If you have a MCE 2005 compatible tuner like a hauppauge, it comes with the A/V in, and a IR transmitter option. You have to plug the A/V composite in from your STB to the Tuner. and the IR transmitter right in front of the STB. Attaching the A/V composite to the VIVO in is not correct, it...

Agree with Vandal, you cannot compare a Extreme Power with a IGreen. The Igreen and Real Power series are far superior to the Extreme Power. If you are looking at active PFC and very high efficiency, then its better to go to the Real Power or Igreen. IMHO, a IGreen at 500 is better than Extreme...

A reset at various times, most probably means a faulty power supply. The total power current provided is not enough at full load. I had a couple of recent powersafe's which were faulty, so its not unheard of. I think before major windows dissection, you should just try to change the powersupply...

I think Mask's Advice is very good. If you are not looking at a complete upgrade, and most bang for buck, then a simple switch to an Opteron 165 or 175 -Depending on your budget is the best way to go. As for availability, I doubt you will see 939 X2 any more in India, officially. But the 165...

Hi, two products i have personally tested and available in the mumbai market easily. 1. 3COM office connect ADSl+ 2. Linksys WAG354G. The reason these two are better than a regular one, is that they have a wireless G option. The 3COM is more expensive and comes with two antennae, while the...

Hi, I know by specs it does not restrict you to any resolution, but custom encoded files, sometimes do not have standard resolutions. A couple of pixel lines missing from the top or the side, would cause decoder chips to get confused. As long as the aspect ration remains, it should not have a...

Hi, My opinion on these drives is that unless you are going to convert all the video's yourself with a fixed ratio and codec, including the way the audio track in encoded, it is of not much use. The decoder is proprietory and is known to get messed with non-standard formats. If you watch a lot...

22@25 , is that sufficient? vx2235wm

i think you were a little hasty. After Dasherra you would have got another 3K off. Sorry, for the late response, but maybe will help some body else.

I think the water cooling kit was not bad at that price, and there was not much success with heat pipe technology on my rig. I have not yet tested the difference in temperatures, since i have not had the time to install it. I think it was worth trying out. I have a gut feeling that with the...

AMD AM2 3000+ & ASUS M2NPV-VM - This is AM2, should be at 11000/- or a couple of hundreds less. Not a top of the line solution, but i think adequate as defined by your requirements.

Just for your info i picked up a coolermaster Aquagate mini for 3500/- :D
