[QUOTE="ssin, post: 331091, member: 84651"] I were talking about HDD saved films. I 've tried with HDD (D:\DATA - eee box HDD default partition) and with external USB 2.0 HDD (maxtor 1TB). No problems even with HD720 divx in mkv format. Until now: 1) I've tried to attach simultaneously: [LIST] [*]DAZZLE (pinnacle) TV DVB-T Hybrid Stick (using an USB male-female 50cm extention) because stick is too large to fit with another one plugged in the same side [*]Maxtor HDD USB 1TByte [*]USB IRda plug for my remote EZ@HOME controller [*]Exagerate BT adaptor for PHONIX PBT-10 headset [/LIST] The result is that consumption grows up to 24-28 Watt even with TV or film on. 2) I've found a lot of problems with BT adaptor. asus recognize it, recognize phonix but no service available so i can't use headset. So probabily it's my fault. 3) Actually i'm using the (quite) perfect EZ@HOME remote controller because the other one that i've bought months ago (hauppauge remote MC 226) works only with VISTA or Microsot Media Center (no XP). Why "quite"? Because it's too heavy (it has a laser control and a trackball built-in) and has a very bad disposition of arrows buttons. Also i actually can't generate any words so chatting in skype4mp is impossible for me. 4) MP works well with HDD in films section. I've tried to remove and re-attach "on the fly" the usb connector and MP update automatically film's list, screenshots and imdb entry. 5) windows XP hasn't the perfect screen resolution for my SHARP LCD 32". Code is Sharp LC-32P55E. But i've solved with MP :) 6) When asus goes to stand-by i can't return to normal mode. Actually the only way form me is to force OS restart. Thank all and sorry for my english. I've slept since last 3 days with eee box on (while downloading). You can ear something but it's NOT enough to avoid your sleep. 26DB is less than a fly in the opposite side of your rooms. For me the real problem was the incredible powerful [B]blue light[/B] on start button! It's like a lighthouse! First night i was walking in my apartment shouting: "arrgh my eyes!! my eyes!!!" :) [/QUOTE]
