Resolved Question: Is my monitor capable of running latest graphics cards?

September 29th, 2008

I’m going to buy a graphics card. But I don’t know whether my monitor is able to run it. In the graphics card installation guide, it says,”Hook up your graphics card to your monitor.” But in the back of my monitor, there is no place to hook up anything accept for CPU. Does that mean, the graphics card won’t work if I don’t hook it up with my monitor?

My monitor is a 14″ eMachines LCD.

Resolved Question: How much should I sell my desktop emachines pc for.?

September 29th, 2008

it isnt even a year old
It came with vista but I put xp on it
1 gig of ram
AMD athlon 64 times 2 processor
burns DVDs and CDs
Nvidia 6150 graphics
comes with original keyboard, But i upgraded the mouse to a laser instead of a ball mouse
PC has no dings or dents in it.
I will do a clean install of either vista premium or xp home. (with vista I have no product key as it is lost, so you must activate it on your own.)
Comes with restore disc
Comes with a linksys wireless G pci card with installation disc. (no router included)
Comes with original lcd flatscreen monitor. I think its either 15 or 17 inches wide, it an HD monitor.

Resolved Question: Hows my car audio system?

September 29th, 2008

Hey I just want some reviews of how anybody likes my system. Not trying to boost my self-esteem just trying to see if I can hold my own with this in my car. Piece of crap car, but a great system in my opinion. Let me know what you think.

Head unit - Eonon 7″ LCD screen DVD player
Speakers - MOMO series Polk audio 2 6X9’s in back and two 5.25″ in front with built in tweeters. Backs are 100w RMS each, fronts are 45w RMS each.
Subwoofers - 2 MTX 12″ 7500’s, 400w RMS
Box - dual ported bass slammers box HUGE box
Amps - pioneer 2 channel 760w amplifier for speakers. Crunch monoblock 1250w amplifier, 625w RMS to each subwoofer. (Trust me the MTX company subwoofers can handle that with ease)
capacitor - 2 FARAD stinger high power capacitor

The whole thing cost me around $1500 plus installation and to me it sounds incredible, but rattles so I’m going to get dynamat all over my trunk. Thanks!

Resolved Question: Dvd player installation problems?

September 29th, 2008

I have put in a number of radios into cars but this dvd player i hooked up for my friend doesn’t seem to fit int the car.

It’s a indash lcd touchsceen one. And there are alot of wires that i was able to tuck away fine but the dash doesn’t seem to have enough room front to back to fully insert the head unit. I think it’s about an inch and a half shy of depth.

The car is an 06 cobalt

Anyone know how to make it fit??

Resolved Question: Outdoor LCD TV Installation and Protection and Directv?

September 29th, 2008

Need help with outdoor lcd tv installation in regards to protection security, weather proof along with directv setup for a screened in porch
I have recently added a screened in porch which is attached to my house. I am going to install an LCD TV through my existing sattelite provider - Directv. Do you have any recommendations for securing my tv to the wall (beside the LCD mount)? I am concerned that someone can come and just rip the LCD flat screen off the wall. Any recommendation for making it water proof? Any recommendations how to hide the tv (poster, artwork, other) on a low budget? Also, I have Directv and unfortunately have to put a receiver out on the porch as well. Any recommendations for making this secure or installation recommendations? Thanks in advance for your help!

Amazon offers two installation services, both for $110 with the “Preferred Customer” discount coupon. Would it be wise to buy one of these?
