The "A6-Pack" Build

Well, turns out that didn't work out so well. Now I get these odd scan lines periodically flashing on the screen (looks like static). Almost like the video card is on the fritz. But only when in 1920x1080. 1280x1024 appear to work fine. Hmmm ... refresh rate maybe?

Tried downloading the AMD Catalyst driver auto detect, installed that driver and no change.

Try a different HDMI cable, maybe?

I have a plasma from 2007 and it doesn't have a 1:1 mode so I have to do the scaling adjustment in ATI or Intel GFX too.

whats your PLASMA model?

Will try another hdmi cable but this is a new one already.

Blu- it isn't just in xbmc where I see the scan lines or whatever they are, it is also in windows. Only when I select 1920x1280. Goes away if I select lower resolutions.

Hoping it is not the integrated graphics card on the fritz.

is your HTPC running in 60Hz ?

I don't think that there is anything wrong with your GPU, but it is possible.....try these-

1. If you have AVR between HTPC and HDTV, you can set it to pass-thru video....
2. Set CCC video quality as shown below-


If the above doesn't work, you can try to wipe out GPU driver by un-intall it and re-install it afterward......

Thanks, will try a few other things when I get a chance in the next couple days, and possibly bring the unit upstairs to see if the same issues arise on my 32" Sony LCD..

Mmmm bios .....

Finally got the keyboard, and of course the power on from an off state does'nt work. Works fine if i use my standard non wireless keyboard but just wont work if i use the ipazzport. tried enabling both usb keyboard and mouse power on options from the BIOS, no luck. Any ideas?

Is your bios "1.40"?

It suppose to improve-
1. Update CPU code.
2. Improve USB mouse function.
