Can I get a HD picture from my Media Center PC?
Saturday, January 17th, 2009I have a DLP projector (1080i) hooked up to my media center PC. Using a DVI cable on the “out” side of the video card, but only a coax input is available for the input in my TV card. I have DISH HD service, but my picture looks blurry from the projector. I’m loding the HD signal due to the MCPC. Is there a stand-alone HD-upconvert available that I could put between the PC and projector to get a HD picture?

Update…the resolution of both PC and projector are set at 1280×720. I could just hook up the DISH box directly to the projector, but then I lose the MCPC functions (detailed guide, DVR, etc.). Thanks in advance for further advice

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009Hi,
I recently purchased HP z540 media center pc which is connected to the tv. I have a tv stand thats made of wood and have a small hole in the back for the wires. Other than that small, it has no other ventilation except when I open the glass door. My question is it safe to put it into the tv stand (i.e. won’t over heat if I leave it on 24/7)?
