I have a Pioneer Elite 510, and a Dell dimension 8100 THX with a GeForce 2 Ultra card.
I am using the RGB cable to connect my computer to the RGB in on the 510.
When the computer is NOT plugged in, I get a perfect picture with no interference, feedback, or whatever the problem is. ( I can only explain it best as it is like when you are watching the news, and you see a computer monitor in the background. You know how the monitor in the background is out of sync, and has those lines that move up or down the monitor? That is what this is like, only it is not as visible, but definatly visible enough to take the joy out of movies.)
The minute I just plug the computer in, not even turn it on, but just plug it in, I get the interference again. I have tried a different cable, and I have tried plugging the computer into a different outlet, as well as used a panamax surge protector, and APC UPS etc. I have tried all different outlet / power strip combinations to see if that would solve it, but it did not.
Do I need a new power supply in the computer? A new RGB cable? A new power cable for the computer? Does anyone know how to get rid of this? It doesn't seem like it was there before, and I don't know what I have changed. It can only be something with cables and power, as it does the same thing wether the computer is on or off, just as long as it is plugged in. It is very disturbing during movies.
Thank you for your help!
