In windows 7,you can clock in identify monitor through the control panel,i done that so i could set max resolution and the 13xx by 768 was all it supported,its ok as a tv i guess but my monitor does higher while not being so big.
OO cheers cheesy im going to hook up through vga when the mrs goes out,i will never get away with it while she is here...

That tron movie was definitely memorable!

i'd guess that if yours is anything like mine - the TV i'm talking about is my sony and it only has 13xx x 768 pixels but it will support 1080p it will just scale it - for some reasons TV's can not scale PC signal through HDMI although they do okay with XBOX's etc

I will leave the obvious answers alone
As for the TV:i dont know mate,i will give it a go later though.

I just wanted to see what HD resolution in metro would do to my graphics cards,its pretty much a benchmark that happens to be a captivating game too...

It brings my computer to its knees at times with just 1440x900 resolution and everything maxed.

I watched the supposed update to bourne identity last night and was sooo disapointed

there was an update? - i watched all 3 in a row earlier last year (yeah, i stay about 1 year behind everyone else in games and movies so i can buy things in box sets for really low prices - family guy star wars was the last one i bought

 

[MightyMission]

yea the first 3 were great,but ok lemme look for the dvd ..The Marine,dont bother its weak
i stay behind with films and games and pretty much everything just to get sensible prices.
the only time i was bang up to date,i got those graphics cards and it didnt work out so well lol
i leant a lesson there
Butterfly effect was very good and it only cost £2 from blockbuster!

http://www.lovefilm.com/film/Red/152434/ - just got this today

anyone notice how theres a bit of the song 'harder better faster stronger' that sounds like the music from the TV show 'how its made' (or whatever it's called)

 

[MightyMission]

saying that about some sounds reminding you of other ones: jessie j' new song reminds me of rihanna's umbrella

that's cause all RnB songs have sounded exactly the since since about 1993

these two songs are both very old, and not too good, but they are the catchiest songs ever made, and once you've listened to them a few times you will remember them for the rest of your life

[MightyMission]

call their customer support and ask them -- we dont work for virgin broadband so we cant tell you

sky claims we have 8mb interwebnet but i can safely say even with the computer left on all night downloading games form steam,the max speed i seen was 6mb and that probably momentary.
normal speed is roughly 1-2mb.
it sucks living in the harbour,we have no other choices for providers.

 

[HUSKIE]

You r lucky man if u have fibre optic in ur place. Correct me if im wrong

lol 0x jaja binks

 

[FreedomEclipse]

If you pay for a 50mb connection but you only get 6mb, thats some serious rip off lmao

 

[cheesy999]

no he pays for 50 Mb and gets 6MB = there are 8 b in B

Megabit - 1/8 of megabyte

 

[FreedomEclipse]

Megabit - 1/8 of megabyte

exactly my point. Hes not getting his full download rate

 

[cheesy999]

exactly my point. Hes not getting his full download rate

he's getting 48 mbit over a 50mbit connection, considering i'm getting 6 on a 20 (ADSL) i think he's doing quite well

6MB times by 8 because of 8 bits in a byte makes it 48mbit
