I found a PT-AE2000U for sale near me which includes a ceiling mount and 80 inch Dalite greyscale screen. The projector has its original bulb w/ 1100 hours on it. I have already tested the projector and it seems well kept and works perfectly. He is selling everything for $1,000. Is this a good deal? What is the street value for just the projector? Thanks!

Hello everyone. On my dual boot XP/Vista machine, I'm having problems displaying 1080P in Vista via VGA to a PT-AE2000U Projector. On XP, I can only display 1080i @ 30Hz. On my Vista, I can't correctly display any 1080 video. On both XP and Vista, 1080P displays crisp but it's horizontally smashed to almost a 4:3 ratio. On XP, 1080i looks good but I can sort of tell it's interlaced. This maybe the combination that it's interlaced and @ 30Hz. On Vista, I tried 1080i @ 30Hz, 1080i @ 60Hz, 1080P @ 30Hz and 1080P @ 60Hz and none will work correctly. I recentally installed Windows Media Center and it displays 1080P but it's stretched and I have to move the mouse to the left or right to see the rest of the screen. My projector does support full 1080P up to 60Hz. I'm sure this is a problem with my PC so maybe I'm in the wrong place but I've been working on this issue for a while now and I am desprate. Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it? Does this have anything to do with my motherboard not being HTPC compliant? I'm not trying to play Blu-Ray disks, I just want to display video in 1080P. Any help/info is appericated ladies and gents.... My PC Spec's are: Mobo: Gigabyte GA-N680ISLI-DQ6 Processor: Intel Dual Core Duo e6700 memory: 2GB RAM in Dual Channel Mode Video: 8800GTS 512 G92 Sound: Turtle Beach Catalina 500 Watt Power Supply Display: Panasonic PT-AE2000U

The above message was intended to be a FYI if someone is on the fence between two projectors and the Blockbuster rebate was a tie breaker. I would have purchased the PT-AE2000U regardless of any rebate.
