[HTPC New comer]

Dear All,

I use HTPC to connect with Infocus SP7205 (DVI input) and try with resolution 1080i


The config of HTPC:

P4 3G CPU, 256MB Ram and Asus Radeon 9600XT display.

OS: Window XP (Home edition)

Using PowerStrip with 3.53 version.


1). When I use the 1080i options in PowerStrip, it can show the image clearly. But I found:

Powerstrip setting: 1920 x 1080i (HDTV standard)

Input source shown from projector : 1920 x 1080/120Hz.


I select all other 3 1080i options in PowerStrip:

HDTV derived, HDTV Pal-derived and ATI HDTV.

The projector is still showing 1920x1080/120Hz input source.


Is this normal?


2). Everytime I reboot the PC, it will be hanged. No image shown and PC is not running.

I have to return to other lower resolution setting in safe mode.

I check with the display profile from Powerstrip:

The max resolution: 1912 x1072 /60Hz

The max refresh rate: 80Hz at 640 x 480

I suspect the reason is 1080i over the max resolution setting.

Am I right? If so, how can I change the max resolution? Which setting should I use?


Thanks.

Your projector is native 1280 x 720p.


Just select that resolution in powerstrip. If I recall there is a HDTV ati derived 720p selection.

It works great.
