Alright, Some of you may know that I was lookin for TV's well we finally got one, But It wouldnt fit in our car so were bringing the truck to get it in a bit. But I already have the theater system hooked up on the old TV, Heres some pics. Yamaha 600W 5.1-Ch. XM-Ready Home Theater System Model: YHT-380 (Will edit topic when we get the TV and HD Cable box) Receiver: Front and Rear speakers (will be moved when final): Center: Sub and left front speaker: Sub Port (decent size ) Overview (beleive me, It WILL change ALOT ) Once again, This topic will be edited when I receive the TV and HD Cable box as the TV we got is considered a monitor and has no tuner itself, So around next week we will have the HD Box and we will be set (damn comcast place is closed on weekends.)

You could try to find a simple movie editing program or get something like Sony Vegas.

What both of you were experiencing is the powerboost and nothing more, The boost can last a very long time I have found out. And the normal upload speed is 90kbps, so that wasnt boosted either.

Blunted try clearing out your system event log, Its inside of the system setup menu. Also why your in there if you have an Intel Hyper Threading processor make sure HT is turned on.

It must have been hard work to duplicate that painting

Nahh, The powerboost itself is completely random, Ive seen anywhere from 10 mb speeds to 50 mb speeds.

Powerboost takes quite awhile to roll out, I know I seen people on testmy.net experiencing it way before me, I got it a week after the first person to post on here. So its just a matter of when they start rolling it out to your area. And that is why you and your friend got it on the same day, They roll it out one area at a time.

You probably never ever reset your cable modem or powercycled it, So Im guessing your power went out recentaly or you had to unplug it, But anyways whenever an ISP makes a service change you have to powercycle your modem in order to receive the new speeds. Upload powerboost is a new thing, The download boost has been around for quite awhile now.

Zombievac, All you are experiencing is Comcast's powerboost, You are not receiving anything other than what I am receiving. And also the results you are seeing on remote desktop are accurate, You see from remote desktop the same you would see if you were sitting right at the computer, Your office connection doesnt conflict the speed results. ::::::::::.. testmy.net test results ..:::::::::: Download Connection is:: 17562 Kbps about 17.56 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 2144 kB/s Upload Connection is:: 2211 Kbps about 2.2 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB) Upload Speed is:: 270 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2007/04/19 - 12:43pm D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-KGLMQJ09S U-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-4MLNGI7QE User Agent:: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3

I live with my parents because I am 15.

Dont you wish comcast was actually like this without the boost?? :::.. testmy.net test results ..::: Download Connection is:: 9069 Kbps about 9.07 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 1107 kB/s Upload Connection is:: 2133 Kbps about 2.1 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB) Upload Speed is:: 260 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2007/04/18 - 6:24pm D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-R34OC78SF U-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-NCMB83TLV User Agent:: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070309 Firefox/2.0.0.3 [!]

You hit the nail on the head, TechTV used to be my favorite station, Although I am a Console/PC Gamer I barely ever watch TechTV now. On another note: Attack of the Show is horrible compared to what Screensavers was.

Yeah buntz we have already had all that stuff checked out. About a week ago actually, We had to have comcast come out here to check our current service because of issues, it was actually our TV (My parents didnt beleive me in the first place!!) So thats why I am looking at new TV's. But anyways we got the newest cable box now. Its so small, Its about the size of an SB5100 SurfBoard modem .

Havn't heard much about them, Maybe someone else has. As far as bose speakers goes, They are way overpriced. But I do like there Bookshelf speakers, But the subwoofers bose makes are total garbage, I could setup a car stereo sub that would sound much much better.

Yeah, Were gonna get the Comcast HD Cable box w/ the DVR.

The TV that we are looking at is 720p, real nice for only 1k and 42", The brand is westinghouse which ive heard is a good brand.

Haha yeah, My friend originally showed this link to me, But then I gave it to kamil.

Our old Standard TV is about to die so we have been looking at HDTV's, Until about a week ago we thought they were very expensive, Until last night. I seen a 42" LCD HDTV at bestbuy for get this. $999, I have never seen such a deal, They also have a 32" for $799. So did the prices actually drop? or is it just sales?

Whens the last time youve upgraded video drivers on that old system, It could either be that your drivers are too OLD or too NEW, Some older games do not like the new drivers at all.

Folding@Home.

I really dont think a company like AT&T Would do such a thing.

Nothing there is un capped, Comcast has upload powerboost now.

Granpa may have hit it right on the money

Does that case move alot of air? Or is the fan speed sacrificed by noise level?
