What is the computer monitor resolution of 1280x1024 compared to TV resolution?

i am getiing a digital box from IO and i have a tc card on my computer. I am planning on hooking up the box to my computer. But i want to know if i put on the hd channels that are provided by the tv company will i see the shows in hd like 720p or 1080p or i resolution on my 1280x1024 resolution monitor?What is the computer monitor resolution of 1280x1024 compared to TV resolution?
When you use a tuner capture card, the only HD channels you can tune into are the local channels (ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, PBS, etc.).



You will NOT be able to tune into any of the QAM-encrypted pay HD channels like Discovery HD, HBO HD, CNN HD, etc. No computer tuner/capture card can decode QAM due to copyright restrictions.



Those unencrypted local channels you can see will be broadcast in 1080i, but your video card will shrink it down to 720p because that's the only HD resolution your 1280x1024 monitor is capable of displaying.



As far as the pay channels are concerned, with a tuner/capture card you can only tune into the standard-definition (i.e. 480i low-definition) versions of those channels.

How can I fix my computer or my internet settings so I can view others myspace comments?

I can't see some of my friends myspace comments and it isn't because they have them blocked, it's my computer. It's isn't all of my friends just the ones who have recently updates their profiles and I know it's just my computer. I'm not sure how to fix my personal firewall settings, actually I have no idea what that is. I just want to fix my stupid computer so I can view my friends comments and be able to leave them one. HELP!How can I fix my computer or my internet settings so I can view others myspace comments?
try cleaning your cache, tools %26gt; internet options



should be somewhere in there sistaHow can I fix my computer or my internet settings so I can view others myspace comments?
It might be your security settings.

Go to:

Tools

Internet Options

then--click on security

Look to bottom %26amp; lower the level to as low as it'll go,

click OK and then see if it'll let you view the page.

What happens if you get a new computer and need to transfer all of your music from iTunes?

What if you have a BUNCH of music, albums, songs, videos, etc. on a computer, but you're getting a new computer and need to transfer all of the content? I know you can easily log in with your iTunes account on a different computer, but that only brings your money over, not all of your music and other things.



So, is the only possible way to transfer everything by burning tons of CDs and putting them on a new library on a different computer?What happens if you get a new computer and need to transfer all of your music from iTunes?
Buy a big flash drive...4GB, 8GB or 16GB depending on what you can afford.What happens if you get a new computer and need to transfer all of your music from iTunes?
burn cds or if you can burn DVDs. If you could burn DVDs they have like 1-2 Gigs. Note if you burn DVDs even DVD-RWs iTunes won't let you burn anything more to the disk. So I recommend you don't buy anything more after you burn the disk. Then you could buy on your new computer.

Is the course work of electrical engineering and computer engineering almost same?

Is the course work of electrical engineering and computer engineering almost same?

I mean like the classes one should take in electrical engineering and computer engineering are same?



And what is the difference between computer science and computer engineering?

Is it just like computer science is software and computer engineering is hardware or something else?Is the course work of electrical engineering and computer engineering almost same?
for your first question , the answer is NO .

the course work is the same for all branches of engineering for the 1st semester . during second sem , there would be a couple of common subjects . after 3rd sem , there would be almost no common subjects (except electives . and , some subjects like Digital Signal Processing . ) .

electrical engg has subjects related to electricity , electronics , control systems ,etc .

computer egg has subjects mainly related to hardware and software .

you can see that there is no similarity .



As for computer science and computer engg, the former is a science course and the latter is an engineering course . Both have hardware and software , but the approach varies . engineering courses can fetch you a job rather easily . science courses are mainly for those interested in research .
both r different.



computer involves in software n hardware etal whereas electrical is all abt circuits n embedded systemsIs the course work of electrical engineering and computer engineering almost same?
in electrical engg. u have detail study about the transmission of electricity like wiring etc....%26amp;

some of subject r common for electical %26amp; comp.... to give idea about ic %26amp; computer component........
Electrical engineering and computer engineering both are different branch.

and yes for second one.Is the course work of electrical engineering and computer engineering almost same?
They are not the same, differ in meaning and standards.

What is the difference between computer science and computer programming?

Somebody please explain this in terms I can understand.



I want to do something in computers when I grow up. I like programming but would like to know more.



What is the different between a computer scientist and computer programmer? Don't they overlap in certain ways?What is the difference between computer science and computer programming?
Well definitions are never clear.



Computer science is the study of all things computers - the hardware inside, the software that runs it, the networks that it runs on, etc.



Computer programming is part of computer science - it involves the software it runs - and usually the development of it.



So, technically speaking, computer programming is a subset/part of computer science.



I have a degree in computer science. I would say the majority of my courses were around how to program - in different languages. I also took courses in databases, networks, and other things.



The best thing to do is check your local universities and colleges to determine what they offer as part of their 'computer science degree'.

  • What are good computer specs to build a computer for a graphic design purpose?

    I am getting into the graphic design industry and am looking at building my own computer for it. What are some good mother boards? I know the 64 bit systems are good. Possibly AMD or Intel. This computer is going to be used with Photoshop, InDesign, Dreamweaver, and Flash. Which at times I could be having them all open at the same time. I would prefer that they do not make the machine drag to much. What would be a good motherboard, graphics card, processor, hard drive(preferably Seagate).What are good computer specs to build a computer for a graphic design purpose?
    Many people have different preferences on motherboard manufacturers. Going with a 64 bit operating system will allow you to use more ram. You will want 6-8GB of ram. Which processor you use will depend more on budget, brand being a personal preference. Obviously, the faster, the better, and the more expensive (typically.) You would have to match the motherboard to the processor. As for hard drives, SAS drives are faster and more reliable, and more expensive. If you want to use SAS drives, then you might want a motherboard that supports them. Hard drive manufacturers are more of a personal preference, but you will want a performance one (versus a "green" energy efficient one.)You will want to run RAID to get the best performance. RAID 0 is fast, RAID 10 (aka 0+1) is fast and redundant (data protection.) You will want a motherboard that supports that. As for the graphics card, that will depend on budget, and may change what motherboard you want. You might go with SLI or Crossfire. You can go with a single card with dual processors, or 2 or 3 cards.



    Try checking out reviews at http://www.tomshardware.com/What are good computer specs to build a computer for a graphic design purpose?
    I think that an Asus motherboard, Evga video card, Intel processor and 1gb Seagate are good. You can build a computer at tigerdirect.comWhat are good computer specs to build a computer for a graphic design purpose?
    looks like you need configurations for a workstation.



    you can refer these specs with your dealer or someone you know, before purchasing and you can spend or save accordingly.here's what i say:



    intel comes with good processors, and be very careful in selecting the motherboard.see whether you can get the same board for the same processor, as motherboards are mostly processor specific.this means if you choose an entirely different motherboard you need another processor.so think in detail on that one.



    a 3 to 4 gb ram module will do fine.a 2 x 2gb will be fine when compared to a 1 x 4gb module, in case it is down.



    a range of 320gb, 500gb, 750gb or 1tb hard drives are available. if you need seagate, the barracuda series are available.



    a standard or a bit of high end can be chosen for keyboard-mouse combos and speakers. a good quality headphone can replace the speakers as well, if you have any sound projects, or interests in music.



    the graphic card mart provides a very wide selection.choose a g-force or ati radeon series from a reputed brand only. bad ones can cause power loss,fast heat ups and system driver problems.a 512mb or 768 mb will provide good performance.



    provide a cooling system to the cpu box if you can.



    finally, choose a monitor which seems okay with you.this one also, choose the best brand available.



    make sure you get the best available optical drive and front and rear usb ports as well.



    hope this will help.

    My computer is telling me i have a critically low amount of space left. What can i delete?

    Basically I have an Windows XP, and i'm running out of space on my computer. The only things i need to keep are my music from iTunes, which are saved in random locations, some pictures that are also scattered throughout, and anything that's required to open files, and of course the microsoft office programs. Also, i have sever users on the computer which i can delete, but i'm afraid my music's file location is on one of the other user's account, which i'm afraid to delete.



    Any help!



    Thanks.My computer is telling me i have a critically low amount of space left. What can i delete?
    First of all, back up the iTunes library to DVDs using iTunes built in backup command.



    As far as what is safe to delete, we don;t know. especially if you have data files randomly scattered.



    Sweep your machine clean of viruses and spyware



    Run Microsoft Disk Clean Up (All Programs %26gt; Accessories %26gt; System Tools)

    Delete old programs that you never use.

    Delete the c**pware that comes from the computer manufacturer that you never use. A small program, PCDecrapifier http://www.pcdecrapifier.com/ can help in removing the excess programs that manufacturers load your hard drive up with.



    Consider upgrading to a new larger, faster hard drive. Hard drives slow down dramatically as they fill up,

    remove all programs not needed empty your temp files also defrag will help tooMy computer is telling me i have a critically low amount of space left. What can i delete?
    Did you check your recycle bin? There may be tons of files there including those that you just deleted.



    Alternatively....you could choose to compress your files or directories (make sure they are non video and image) [assuming you formatted using NTFS format].
