[H] Slow printing from Acrobat Reader 7

I have noticed that on my laptop, it takes a long time to send jobs over the network from Acrobat Reader 7. A two page print job might take 5 seconds from Word Perfect, but takes 2-3 minutes from Acrobat. Anyone ever see this before and/or have a suggestion? T

I am trying to connect my media PC to a Mitsubishi HDTV (model WD-52725) using a DVI input. The TV itself only has HDMI so I have an adapter. However, I can't get a picture to display on the TV. Previously I was using the VGA adapter to connect as the TV has one of those as well. I have never

Well, in many cases, you can make this work (DVI to HDMI) but I'm not sure if this will work with a Geforce 4400. I have done this with a 6xxx series, though. You might make sure you have the latest drivers from Nvidia. And lookup the exact resolutions supported by your HDTV -Original
