hi guys please could someone offer some advice on a very strange issue im having when trying to use my pc through my hdtv. ok the situation is this.... it use to run fine my graphics card had to be set to 1360x768, one day it stopped working so i thought it must be the tvs pc input gone wrong, so then i thought i would get around the problem by buying this converter that converts vga to hdmi as my hdmi sockets working fine, i set this box up and still nothing and like i say hdmi socket is fine so now im starting to wonder do graphics cards have any setting u need to change for them to work on hdtvs? also to note is when trying either the oc socked or hdmi its partially doing something because u get that sound from the pcs sound when somethings been plugged in and when u unplug it. if someone could help me i would be so gratefull because its something very strange. thanks for your time. james

hi nev, ok i followed as u said unistalled driver for top drive then push eject on bottom and it still opened the top drive, so then i unistalled both driver restarted my pc and they installed again fine but the problem is still there, damn this things stubborn :( thanks again for that advice it seems like this pc wants to beat us :( james

hi again nev, under device manager both drives are installed ok with no exclamation marks or anything like that and the drive that doesnt eject does work when media is put into it so this is very odd indeed, i just cant see any logical explanation why the top draw would open when bottom one is pushed, thanks for all your help if u can think of anymore suggestions your help much apreciated, and even as i write on here with this keyboard it sometimes doesnt come out so im begining to think its iffy i orderd a microsoft one this ones a trust. james

hi nev, thanks for the advice i tried as you said by taking out the connectors on the drive and re inserting them to no avail im afraid so i think this will remain a truely weird unsolved mystery?? but at least now i can use that drive by doing as you suggested and opening via right click and selecting eject, and i also deleted my cookies on the other issue but its still doing the same thing so ive opted to go for a different keyboard in hope theres just something iffy with mine because it has now i noticed started being a bit odd on other things here and there i just never really heard of a keyboard going wrong lol. james

also nev i wonder if u can help me with another strange issue (yes i know my computer is nuts lol) i have put this in another forum on here but no reply maybe u could help?, ok when i type for example the word 'panasonic' on google or websites its fine, when i type the word on ebay it always trys finishing the word with 'pandora' and wont let me type panasonic, but it also does it when ive tried other words it just keeps trying to guess wrong words and wont let me put what i want, im thinking of replacin the keyboard bt then it dont make sense when it works fine on other websites??? nuts i know :( help apreciated again james

nev you beaut!!! yes nev many thanks that worked straight away, but lol now i have to push the drive in by hand as the button refuses to take it in and carrys on opening the top draw still, at least with your advice i can use the drive now but didnt like the idea of pushing it by hand all the time, any other ideas whats causing this? thanks very much for your advice :) james

hi guys i have a very frusrating dvd drive issue i hope you can help me with, i have 2 drives installed in my pc 1 an ide drive (top drive) the other a sata drive (second drive) the problem is when you push the eject button for the second drive to come out it makes the top one come out??? but the top drive also opens with its own button as it should, both drives are recognized in windows but because of this i obviously cant use the second drive, your help would be much apreciated. many thanks

hi, please can one of you guys help with this really strange frustrating keyboard issue?, ok when i type for example the word 'panasonic' on google or other websites its fine, when i type the same word on ebay it keeps finishing off with different words like pandora and will not let me type the word panasonic, its only on ebay for some reason and really annoying me, anyone who knows how to solve this strange issue your help would be much apreciated. james
