DjiNn and guys: On Current leakage.

I have unplugged all Video and Audio cables. Xbox 360 is directly hooked up to the wall socket. Xbox is NOT turned on used the test pen and it still lights up. Any advise ? Unattached and reattached Xbox HDD ?? any other advise ?? Thanks guys...

Test conducted:

1) Removal of HDD and touch the metal surface of the HDD connection. NOTE: NOT the connector but the other metal casing of the XBox.

Result: Test pen lights up.

2) Touch other other metal parts from the removed HDD area. NOTE: Inner metal casing not the outer changeable area.

Result: Test pen lights up.

3) Other parts of the XBox 360. The back panel other side (Vertical Standing) and front panel. All metal surface.

Result: Test pen DOES NOT lights up.

wats a test pen? issit that screw driver thingy that when u press a "button" at its tail, the thing will light up?

nah, try it out before posting your comment...if you find the imaage stretching, come and chop my headoff in GOW,k ?

anyway, above statement is just kidding, thats why i mentioned in my previous posted msg,

resolution : 1280 x 1024
screen format : Wide Screen

that means doing it with vga cables?
bahhhhhh i was thinking of going components on my 2407
i dont care abt 1080p anymore doesnt bother me
i just want a full screen good no stretching image

hey.. can you try the xbox 360 power socket on other socket.... (means other power point)

Yay, just got my Widescreen LCD. Bought Samsung 940BW.

was wondering why i read somewhere u guy were saying DTS problem with xbox?

i checked it works with normal DTS, DTS ES, DTS 96/24 also. using toslink to my receiver, playing the DTS demo disc by yamaha

yea man.... text are much sharper compared to 1360x768 reso option.

Latest Update on Current leakage:

Change to different power point but yield same result. =/

You're right, it's good.

Actually I do find that with *x768 and *x720 there is some image tearing (like VGA not synced properly), but with 1280x1024 there's none.

BTW those of you with 2007's, what settings do you use? Under image modes got Desktop/Multimedia/Gaming ... I use Desktop for GOW cos seems like the contrast is better .... with Gaming mode there's like no black, gray only.

hi i'm using that too
what setting are u using ? 1280x720?

alamak munky u better get a new table la, seriously. that thing is bent out of shape d.

I'm using Dell UltraSharp 2405FPW for my Xbox 360 and using the component display, is abit dark at first but with adjusting is look just fine on 720p and 1080i, i have bad experience with vga cable since i get the third party one.... I think your dell ultrasharp 2407 should give you good picture on component input. I was trying to get the original vga cable for testing but no luck, the shop around my place is not selling, which i end up buying the third party cable which really really sucks. avoid avoid... please...

ok thx for the reply
ill be using component then
since its widescreen
it fills up the whole screen right?

Mine fill up the whole screen.. look so good.. but you will need adjusting for brght and contrast... then is really nice.. especially you hook up on 5.1 system...

both 1366 x 768 and 1280 x 720 are wide screen format.

in ratio, 1366 x 768 = 16:9 while 1280 x 720 also a 16:9.
how to get the figure?

1366 / 16 ~ 85 and 1280 / 16 = 80
768 / 9 ~ 85 and 720 / 9 = 80

both are wide screen format, except that most LCD panel will scretch the 16:9 ratio to 16:10, which is native for most LCD Wide-Panel, theorically 1366x768 should be better than 1280 x 720, since we know higher pixels number = more details thus sharper. But since so many of you were saying 1280x720 is sharper, I think it has something to do with the Upscaler in Xbox, since 1280x720 is native for 720P sources, what the console need to do is just pass thru the stream instead of upscaling/enlarge them to 1366x768, which is around 6% increased in number of pixels.

correct me if I am wrong, personally i am using 1366x768 now, will try 1280x720 asap.

eh bro manade bent. That small 'table' is curved at the front, that's why u see like it is bent
