26''?

I got the 26'' samsung, loving it, just some colour banding issues thru ps3 on HDMI :(

Yep it's the 26". I'm having no problems playing my 360 through VGA, but the auto brightness thing can get really annoying if I'm playing a game/watching a film where most of the scenes are half-dark so it's constantly flickering...

stick your tv into standby and press info->menu->mute->power

this will turn on the tv with the engineer menu onscreen, select 'option table' then on this screen you can disable dynamic dimming. it was a feature I hated too but once I set this the tv was better.

I accept cash and all major credit cards :p

there are loads of options under that menu, just be careful what you set. I tend not to play about with channel based stuff, but I turned off dynamic contrast and dynamic dimming and thats about it.

I've got a Wii, a PSone and my pc which has these specs:

-Core 2 Duo E6300 @ 3.1 Ghz

-1GB 667Mhz RAM

-Gigabyte DS3 Rev 2.0

-Ati Radeon X1300 Pro 256MB

-160GB Western Digital Sata

-Windows Vista Ultimate 64 Bit

I currently have a 17 inch Sony CRT, but I am upgrading this summer to a 19" Widescreen Viewsonic for my PC.

I have the Wii and PSone connected to a 27" TV.

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
