Thanks gibs. Will do. Currently googled a bit and found a thread with similar hardware and error and there it was ASUS ATK somewhat. Updated that now and see if BSOD still persists. Then switching to full dump. Didn't know this is better for finding the driver/dll since until now minidump was enough...

I would definately go for a Streacom case, very small an verrrrry good looking.
Now i own a Asrock Vision3D, bought it just for the looks. These Streacom cases look nearly the same.

Hi.
HTPC cases are something about 100++€ in average. But you can use any "normal" ATX desktop or tower case as long as you like it..

Should do fine, just ensure you check the BIOS once the system is together as it may start the RAM in 1333MHZ and you will need to change.
The system from guypetj above looks good for a client but I you are adding a tuner card etc I would go with what you have decided.
Also the Asus motherboard has 2G shared memory with the GPU...

About 2 years ago I got myself a Gateway SX2801 pc as client. I bought this because of its size and features. This little computer has been a very welcome surprise ever since. I’ve not been able to match its power and silence, whisper quiet, with any of the HTPC’s I build myself.
Recently I replace 2 of my older HTPCs with a newer...

At work, I have one of these fitted with a low-profile HD5450 (http://www.ebuyer.com/199429-sapphire-hd-5450-512mb-ddr3-hdmi-dvi-vga-out-pci-e-low-profile-11166-01-20r) so I suspect the HD6450 equivalent would also fit e.g http://www.ebuyer.com/265351-sapphire-hd-6450-512mb-ddr3-hm-vga-dvi-hdmi-pci-e-graphics-card-11190-04-20g

Personal opinion - the GT520 is not powerful enough for MP + 1080p display + 1080i video, for nVidia look at GT430/440/530/620/630 i.e. a minimum of 96 CUDA cores (the GT520 has 48)
My take on things would be:
G540 + GT520 = low(ish) end CPU + low end GPU
A8-5500 = mid range CPU + low/mid range GPU (but make sure you use...

Sure, you need a decent one... I usually use Vanco and decent Cat6 cables (have it on a roll, so I get the proper length I need).

Guys,
Thanks for your help, after a minor installation hiccup I've got a trial setup running. A quick test shows it can record and view at the same time...so, so far so good. We'll try a bit more stress testing through the week and see how things go.
Thanks again!

0% is where you want it, unless you have a TV that doesn't support 1:1 mapping, in which case you are forced to adjust the overscan so that you can see the entire picture without the edges being cut off.

Hi, I'm currently awaiting Windows 8 for my next Upgrade of my HTPCs. The plan is to have tablets that are easily docked so one can pick them up and carry them with oneself if one wants or needs to.

I would recommend an HP branded MCE compatible remote + receiver from ebay. They come via hong kong and are priced around $10 USD incl P&P. They also come with an IR blaster, and the receiver would be compatible with a harmony remote that is emulating MCE remote.

I have the following in my home; 52" Sony, 55" Samsung and a 70"Sharp. without a doubt the samsung is the winner for picture quality.
The Samsung has better color contrast, less reflection on the screen then any of the others.
The Sharp is fantastic because of its size, but can't compete with the samsung, just nowhere near the same...
