Re: [H] New TV.
Yeah I read that. DLP's were almost dead, down to 2-3 manufacturers out there this last year and now with the LED backlights might be coming back to compete as well. :) On Mar 14, 2009, at 5:28 AM, mark.dodge wrote: And now with LED light source DLP beats out plasmas for size and action picture quality, and I saw a blue ray DVD of the fifth element side by side with a plasma (vizio 50) and a mitsu 57 dlp and went with the dlp. -- JRS stei...@pacbell.net Facts do not cease to exist just because they are ignored.

Re: [H] New TV.
I really don't care if they come back or not.as long as my lovely 67-inch LED DLP keeps working 'til it dies...for the price I paid...others can pay the premium price for competing tech.

[H] Properly removing Soundblaster Card and drivers
I'll be replacing my SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatal1ty card with an Emu audio card. They are both Creative products and I'm a little nervous that if I don't fully remove the SB card and all associated drivers that I may have conflicts when I install the Emu. Is there a good step-by-step guide for this process? I'm using XP Pro Media Center. thanks!

Like an industrial strength scouring pad! Just follow the instructions when you want to uninstall and max the settings. It will go through the Window's Registry with a fine toothed comb. Cheers!

Re: [H] Windows 7 ?
It's the reserved partition for use of Bitlocker if you ever decide to implement it. In RC and RTM, that partition will only be 100MB, and will be marked System Reserved. When you enabled Bit Locker on Vista, it had to create the partition...Win7 just creates it from initial install, since it is only 100MB. -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware- boun...@hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of FORC5 Sent: Saturday, March 14, 2009 4:48 PM To: hardware@hardwaregroup.com Subject: [H] Windows 7 ?

Re: [H] Windows 7 ?
thanks, anyway to say no thanks ? I guess it really is just reserved and not really in use.
