Any ideas???

I have an older toshiba laptop. The battery was bad so I bought a replacement. It wouold show a full charge but it would not run off of the battery. I company I bought the battery from replaced it and told me to make sure I had an updated bios which I did. I'm still having the same problem...

I cleaned everything put it all back together and it worked about 30 minuntes then the picture shut off. I don't know if it is worth paying someone to repair it. I have had my eye on a 65" maybe I'll will break down and buy it. Thanks for the replies.

Thanks for the reply. I did not find a fan but I did find about an 1/8" of dust covering everything. Maybe all that dust was not letting it breath. What do you think?

I have an old RCA 52" rear projection. After it has been on for an hour or two it shuts off the projection lights, I can turn it off and come back later and turn it on and it works. I don't know if something is over heating or what the deal is. Is there anything that I can check, change, or...

Would this LNB work with my DP34 switch, Dish Pro FTA Dual LNB?

I see what you mean. To switch to Dish Pro I would just need to replace my LNBs with Dish Pro LNBs and I could use my DP34? And in the future in order to add more receivers I would need to get a DPP44? Or can I add another DP34?

If I'm not ready to change my LNBs at this time. What switch will give me the maximum ports out?

I guess they are legacy the dish installer installed my upgrade and put the SW21 switch. The DP34 is a switch I bought off of ebay. I did not realize there was a difference. Sorry about the confusion. What would be a good switch to go with to run up to six recievers? Do you have a...

What would be a good switch to go with? I wiil need six ports in the near future.

I've tried all of the different port configurations and none seem to work. I finally hookied up my original SW21 switch and hooked it up to my 510 and it is working. So I know I'm good from my LNB to my switch and from my switch to my receiver. I guess the only thing left is the switch...

Ok I replaced all the connectors with connectors for my cable. I've good cable from the LNB to the switch to the receivers. I was hooked into ports 1 & 2 for my 625 and 3 for my 2700 on my switch. 2700 is reading satellites no problem. 625 is still giving me a switch error message. I was...

Before I crawl 50' through my hot attic I want to make sure my cable is ok. On the jacket it has RG6/0 QUAD SHIELD AWG TYPE CL2/CM 75C (ETL) 3020454 or CATV SUN RES SWEPT TO 3.0 GHZ. I really don't know what all that means, are these ok. Also are there any certain type of cable ends I shoud be...

Ok, I cleared the switch matrix on all the recievers and the 2700 works but not the 625. The 510 never stopped working in the first place. I do still have the switch in the attic I was thinking of mounting it under the eave of my house it will be out of direct sunlight and be in open air...

I'll try it when I get home. Thanks for your help.
