Ok , i didnt think it would be a simple plug and play .
First off the bat im running a G70 .
Yes it was very easy to install , i removed the board in the back with those 2 big round connector plugs that look like their from an old betacam video recorder and slid Moomes card straight in place and it seems to come through on input B .
Now , i connected my PS3 into the HDMI and the picture came through straight away no probs . I did all my convergence adjustments on it as it was all over the place and got it spot on .
Issues im having is that the picture is extreemly soft , i wouldnt say its sharp at all , in fact if i go back to normal 1080i through the component output , its the difference of going from an old washed up Krysler TV to a brand new Sony Bravia so i cant see this pictur to be what everyones raving about .
I have reset the output on the PS3 to 720p from 1080p and no better at all .
I have tried setting my input B to do HDTV - YPbPr and doing the same on the PS3 and the picture just rolls sideways and wont lock , ive tried HDTV-BR but no pix .
Anyone got any suggestions on what settings to set the jumpers on the card on plus where i should be on my G70 and finally if anyones familiar with the PS3 maybee some settings i should have on that ut that pars pretty straight forward .
Thanx guys and hope to hear back soon .
Adam .

yeah Kal , i found that online manual you created and worked the remote and found im on the correct jumper setting so all good there .
Ive been on it here for about 7 hours tonight doing full set ups on the projector for different resolutions and im buggered so im gonna go to bed for now and tomorrow night play with running component into this new HD card at 1080i . after what ive been used to with the sharpness as i had it , the G70 is just too soft a pix through the HDMI at 1080p and also 720p . Id really prefer sharpness so am hoping the component inputs on this card will give me a comprimise with the gamma built in .
Thanx and heres to tomorrow nights session ... lol .

No go guys , pretty much since lunchtime to now being midnight every combo ( component and HDMI 720p , 1080i , 1080p ) , every reset on the projector and every possible adjustment ( inc astig ) with no success .
If there is anyone Melbourne based familair with the G70 and Moome card who would like to offer me hands on help in why my component built into the G70 is absolutely sharp and why the Moome card in every combo of component , HDMI in all resolutions of 720p , 1080i and 1080p just far to soft in comparison .
As i said , if theres someone out Melbourne Australia way ( Keilor ) that is willing to come up for a drive to check it out its muchly appreciated otherwise this card is just a spare input on the back of the G70 and it surprises me considering the hype about them .
Any hands on help muchly appreciated .
Thanx .
Adam .
