Kimmo or anyone else for that matter, so am I better off trying the matrox first because it is cheaper in price, and then buy the AIW if I think that I can deal with the picture, or should I buy the AIW cause it will give a better picture right out of the box? If the matrox is the one to buy...

Kimmo and Max, I cant thank you guys enough for taking the time out, and everyone else in this forum. As for the type of tv, it is a Sony 61 model number KP-61HS30. Kimmo you mention about "a converter from the DV-I output (a digital monitor connector used for, among other things, flat panel...

OK, I should have explained this better. There is a section on the back of the tv, that has Video 1 thru 6. Video 1 is empty and the hook-ups are s-video, RCA (yellow-white-red) plugs. Video 6 is also empty and the hook-ups are for component wire. There is also a tv out w/RCA plug. There is RG6...

Well from what I thought. I would use a s-video to connect them both. This might be where I'm confused. I thought people in the forum have or had big screen TV's and also hooked them upto there Cpu's. All I really want is to be able to siton my couch and be able to read the text. Now from what...

Scott, so for surfing the net you would use matrox card. Which model? Also will web pages look good as well? If I want to just open programs and edit photos/video on my Big screen, using the matrox would be better? It seems like the only good thing the aiw is for games, true? Just want to make...

I dont want to come off wrong. But I would have thought that everyone here hooks up there PC to their tv. So that being said, why can noone really give me an answer as to which video card they would recommend on a big screen. And which software they use to help that quality. Thanks again Lisa...

OK, but lets say for surfing the net (reading/writing text). Which one would be better? I have a sony 61 inch. I want Pic quality to be as goog as possible. Most Important is getting Online, then editing. Lisa Space

Scott you mention about firewire card. Who makes it and what does it do? What I need to know is the AIW 8500DV the better one to get when it comes to surfing (reading text) and photo/video editing? This all started with me posting about the xtacy g4 128mb card, people mention to get the AIW...

Is the All in Wonder Radeon 8500DV the newest model out, or is there another model with more mem. The one I saw in BestBuy was the Radeon 8500 with (I think) only 64 Mem. So just so I understand, this model is the best for surfing (reading text) , video/photo editing? Thanks again. Also My...

Is the All in Wonder Radeon 8500DV the newest model out, or is there another model with more mem cause this one only has 64. So just so I understand, this model is the best for surfing (reading text) , video/photo editing? Thanks again. Also My cpu is 120 gig hard, 1.8 Ghz 512 ram Lisa Space

The setup is this: I will be connecting the cat5 cable from the modem to a Linksys Router, then the other cat5 cablings will go from the router to their located outlets. Was not sure what to use crossover cable or straightforward cable. Thanks Lisa Space

I have cat5 cable thru out the house, and now am upto the part of connecting the cat5 plugs to the wires. I have heard that there are two different ways to line up the wires in the plug before you crimp it. And it all depends on what you are going to do with the wires. Is there a web site that...

Matt, I plan on having the computer company put all the things I want in it for me. You mentioned "You'll need an adapter to go from your PCs VGA output to the 3 RCA component input" Just checking but is this the only way to do it, and is this the best way to get the best picture? I just dont...

Thanks for the help...like all the books say, it cost more to rip down a new wall....so I guess I will go with the lead. Lisa

I'm running a pvc pipe with CAT5 and RG6 cable's in it. there is a BX cable that runs at a 90 degree. I know this is enough to have it all work right, but I do not want to take any chances, so a freind of mine mentioned putting a little square piece of lead between them two, would this setup...

Yeah well here is the thing. I plan on having in the HT area, the cable box, VCR, maybe DVD. The reason maybe is cause I might use my PC's DVD. So knowing what I plan on having in the HT how many RG6 should I run back to the Media closet? And how many should I run for maybe future components...

I will try not to make this confusing, but this is all new to me and is hard to explain. I'm going to hook up my PC to my tv which will have be a small HT. Now I'm going to be putting in-wall speakers thru out the house so I can listen to my MP3's. I also plan on playing some games off the PC on...
