    Default How to get a PC-DVD Setup

    I want a slot loading DVD region free drive for my PC.

    I want a graphics card that lets me output the film to the tv whilst i can carry on surfing/chatting on my monitor (is this standard with geforce4's?)

    and I want a 5.1 sound card and surround sound.

    Cheers

    1) get a Pioneer DVD106s drive:

    2) get a graphics card with tv out. anything with tv out:

    3) get a 5.1 soundcard (onboard decoder) or a digital sound card without decoder. anything will do audigy etc etc

    4) get a 5.1 set (with/out amp depedning if card has decoder onboard). something like Creative's new inspire range, which has a remote.

    5) software... power-dvd
