LCD TV + 5.1 Setup

Ok experts. I have about $6000-$7000 to spend on a 50" LCD plus a 5.1 audio system. I recently bought a house and have 4 holes made in the wall for speakers (2 front, 2 rear) with audio cables running behind the wall. I plan to place the TV above my fireplace. The room is about 25 x 25. Now...

LNT3253H Unscrambling OTA HD Channels

Thanks guys. I returned the TV and exchanged it. The channels show up better this time around. My power supply also doesn't make as many popping or cracking noises after I turn off the TV. I failed to mention this problem earlier because when I called Samsung they told me this was normal as...

LNT3253H Unscrambling OTA HD Channels

Sorry I did mean the signal is glitching. I just have a regular TV antenna, but I doubt the antenna is the problem because when it does work, it works great.

LNT3253H Unscrambling OTA HD Channels

So I've recently run into a problem when I turn on the TV, OTA HD Channels appear to be unscrambled. When I turn it off, remove the antenna, plug the antenna back in, and turn on the TV, it works fine. Anybody else experience this? The Online Agent from Samsung told me that I may have a weak...

Dell 710m Power Management Problem

I have a 710m and it works perfectly fine when the battery is charged. However, until recently, the adapter for some reason will not charge my battery. In addition to that, the little green light on my laptop that normally indicates that my battery is getting charged will not light up when the...

What Do You Think Of This TV?

I actually bought the 32" Bravia M series from Sony for 699 at a regional electronics store. I returned the TV because the base broke off during shipping and the store was not able to replace it as they were out of stock. I decided to get a refund. For the time I had it, I was able to plug it...

Best 32" 720p LCD TV?

I've been debating whether I should buy now also. I went to several retailers this week to check out prices and compare products. Most tell me that Samsung LNT3253H is the best rated for a 720p that's 32". Comparing most of the 32" TV's side by side, it's hard to tell which ones are good...

Before or after the super bowl??? Better time to buy? LCD plasma TV

This is a good discussion. Krotchy makes a good point about newer models coming out. All the retailers will tell you (my recent experience with Best Buy) that now is the time to buy because LCD TV's are in shortage. I don't totally believe that and can't verify, but my understanding is that...

Do I need Internet to Use Slingbox strictly for home use?

You don't need the internet for Slingbox. I recently disconnected my internet with Time Warner and was still able to use my Slingbox to view cable channels. As long as you have a router and a computer/laptop connected to that router via wireless/wired, you should be good.

Troubleshooting Choppy Video Playback

I'm considering upgrading my current system with a new graphics card, but needed some expert opinions before I do that. Currently I have an older geforce mx400 card with 32 mb ram. About 75% of the time video playback is fine, but with streaming HD these days, video is really choppy. Would...

pc3200 and pc2700 at the same time

It's been a while since I've dealt with RAM, but would anybody ever recommend using a gig of pc3200 Crucial ram alongside a gig of pc2700 Kingston ram. I'm assuming the pc3200 would clock down. Just to throw another wrench, my motherboard calls for using pc2100 or pc2700. Again, I'm assuming...
