I've been using western digitals for a long time, never had a drive fail. I might have been just lucky so far though.

If I were you, I'd just keep the two 5870 in CF. Should keep you happy for a long time, at least until the GTX480 price comes down, or for ATI to release the next big thing, or wait the 5970 to be more available and cheaper.

No Problem! I once forgot to connect that connector on a graphics card and that very same message came up.

I don't have any specific books in mind, but your going to want to check out http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/ Really great website. Maybe read that first then look for books to get more details?

The only thing that would work is if you can run the game in windowed mode. Even if there's a remote chance that your game supports this, it may just pause when it looses focuse anyway. Otherwise full screen games will minimize when they loose focus, and most will also pause.

Assuming where talking about normal cable TV: PC TV Tuners are just like Normal TVs. "Normal" TVs are not affected by each other or "PC TV Tuners". A Single PC TV Tuner can record and watch one channel at a time. While dual PC TV Tuners can record one channel while watching another channel (I...

salvage, you forget, try simple solutions first! :) It should be in there, but that connector is very common, it provides extra juice that the PCIe slot just can't provide. The more powerfull graphics cards can have two six pin connectors (there's also 8 pin connectors, you can see in...

Ya sounds to me like the PWM frequency is to low. It should stop if you put the fan full speed though...

How fast is it blinking? Maybe it's some sort of PWM for controlling fan speed. Have you tried changing the fan speed to full?

Did you connect a 6 pin (pcie connector) power connector from the PSU to the video card? EDIT: Here, I circled it for you: You just need to plug in the pcie power connector (from PSU) there.

Try replacing the graphics card with another, see if it is indeed the graphics card.

If your in Canada, staples sells anti-static bubble wrap (I think the standard is: pink bubble wrap is anti-static and white is normal)

That will work. Most likely, the controller would be connected by a molex connector. The molex connectors have a 12V line a 5V line and two grounds. However, not all components use both voltages. So if you want to get a fan controller with a display, you should order one in, and find out what...

Maybe you just couldn't see it? An image that doesn't have any sharp edges, the blurriness of stretching would appear to be minimal, while if your reading text it would be really bad.

No the quality should be the same (as long as you set up the resolution correctly and all that). Both DVI and HDMI are digital signals that are completely compatible with each other, hence why an adapter is inexpensive. Sorry it didn't work out for you. :( Maybe you can try the VGA again...

Maybe there's a way to prevent this "communication". Have you tried using a DVI port on the graphics card, and use a DVI-HDMI adapter?

There's a few 120Hz LCD monitors out there too.

This is the only thing I found. I bought it, and it better work.

The PC Input, most likely a VGA connection, doesn't cary sound to your TV. You need a separate way to connect the sound. Have a look to see what sound outputs your computer has and what inputs your TV has. About your second question, in my opinion, your CPU might be holding you back.

Is there any difference if the TV is turned on or off?
