Well, I did it.
It was a year-long project from purchase to use, but I now have my home theater.
I could NOT have done it if it wasn't for you.

Now, one last question.
My projector has a HD card in it, but I have heard conflicting opinions as to whether it will run 1080p.
How can I tell if it has the resource capability?
I do have a "HD" setting on the random set-up screen, but everything has MHZ infron of it, and people keep saying it needs 125 MhZ to run HD.
Any thoughts?
Once again, THANK YOU!

67KHz for 1080p, 60Hz

33.75KHz for 1080i, 60Hz

45KHz for 720p, 60Hz

31KHz for 480p, 60Hz

Try 1080i first. See how you like the picture.

Speaking of pictures, let's see some of your theater!

After I secure the covers on the bottom.

Yeah, I built a home theater.
What else could I do with a room that is 11 X 26?

MHz refers to the bandwidth required to resolve the resolution, it wont stop you displaying it.

The machine will very likely do it, but 1920x1080i will probably look alot nicer and much sharper. Aside the lack of bandwidth, i reckon itll be abit too soft to read text, and i just reckon youre pushing the machine harder than you should for what may be no visible gain.

A woman CRT'er!! Talk about rare, it's like meeting gamer chicks! Very cool Cool I hope you find your Barco 808s to be very satisfying! I've had few barco products, but of the displays from them that I had, they were very nice.
