cpu to lcd tv

alvinz — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 02:10:21 +0800

hi guys,

i am not sure where to ask and hope i am in the correct section.
as in title, my uncle wants to get his first CPU and he asked me to search and survey for him. He wants the new cpu to connect to his 32" LCD tv(full HD) so that he does not have to spend additional money buying a monitor, i would like to ask, is it possible?
the rough specs are:
a core2duo processor, 4gb ram, ATI Radeon HD 5450 1GB, etc
i experience normal cpu connecting to a tv but this time the lcd tv is in full hd, furthermore i dont have much knowledge on lcd tv ...

hope u guys can advice me .. thanks

Comp just hanged ....

alvinz — Mon, 26 Nov 2007 01:43:02 +0800

hey guys/girls, i am having problem with my comp. This comp which i did not use for a month+ since its in my hometown and recently i went back and on it. The CPU just start like normal but the monitor does not shows anything. The coolers(fans) will just move and everything seems to be working but same thing no display on the monitor.
After a few force power off and restart only it starts up but thats not the only problem, when its on and used for some time it will just hang there.

i was wondering whats the problem and has anyone encounter this problem and any solutions? Is it a heat issue? which i dont think so.

my CPU is power supply(500W), P4 3.0ghz , ATI X1600pro, 512ram. before this period of time my comp was on 24/7.

someone help plzz..
