If it does not get goty, I would be shocked. L.A. Noire.......... What is that? :rolleyes:

Something similar happened to me and it turned out I had to fix it on the t.v. itself and not the nvidia control panel. Somebody changed something with the remote on accident. Have you tried that? Back to the op I got a new monitor, and not only does it look better than the 40" it is much, much easier on the eyes. :thumbsup: Problem solved.

I don't know if this will be a issue because I have never tried. Will I have any problems installing Skyrim to a separate ssd that does not have my steam folder on it? (Will it give me a option where I want the game installed?)

Pete Hines says he is right (I believe him) - 12:01 whatever your timezone is: https://twitter.com/#!/DCDeacon/status/131323857981284353 https://twitter.com/#!/DCDeacon/status/131323657610997760 Praise be Akatosh and all the divines! :biggrin:

Sorry never seen this before. :unsure:

Found this article. http://www.computerandvideogames.com/322366/skyrim-can-be-finished-in-two-hours/?attr=CVG-General-RSS&cid=OTC-RSS I know this game will be a 500+ hr title for me. What could you possibly do to get through the main quest so quick? Of course they were Bethesda people so they know all the tricks. Did anyone ever speed run through the main quest in Oblivion. What was your best time?

I also read the rage thread and all I can say is that I hope Pete is right. It would be rather lame to go to a pre-launch party and then have to wait after you get your copy to unlock it. I would love to go home install it and venture forth on my quest! If I do have to wait, I guess I can just pet my Alduin statue and look at the purty pictures in the book for a few hours. :thumbsup:

Alright I think we got it figured out. It wasn't just me, I did a test with a few other people and it hurt their eyes too. Certain games are worse than others and oblivion is one of the ones that is bad. I went to the doctor even though I'm up to date on my prescription, he said my eyes were perfectly healthy and everything was okay. He said it sounded like a focusing issue. I went home and tried a few other things and still had problems, so I turned it back to 1920x1080p. Out of sheer exasperation I got about three feet away and I was fine? It makes sense now because when I used to played on a old 32" I sat only a few feet away. Of course that was a old tube tv and not hd. I feel silly sitting that close to a huge screen so I went ahead and got a 23" Asus monitor and I hope that fixes all the issues :thumbsup: . I think it depends on the person really so if you ever get eyestrain try different things there are very mixed answers online about viewing distance and eye health.

Alright this may not seem very Skyrim related but to me, it very much is. For me Skyrim is it! I have waited for the next TES like everyone else for years. So obviously when it comes out I will be spending countless hours in front of the screen. I have slowly been upgrading components and tweaking my system for the upcoming release. I got my pc to where I wanted it and hooked it up to a 40" Samsung 1080p t.v. Awesome right? At first I thought so but now I'm not so sure. I had played the 360 a lot on the t.v. with no issues but as I have been playing Oblivion on the pc at 1920x1080p...To my horror my eyes feel like they are being stabbed by ice picks and they bother me constantly. So I set out on the quest for knowledge why this was happening and I believe I have gotten close but I'm still not positive. At first I spent countless hours tweaking the options on the t.v. Backlight, contrast, sharpness ect. It helped none. I hung a light behind the t.v. and it didn't help. I also sit far enough away from the screen so I know I'm not sitting to close we measured the distance to be sure. (My prescription is up to date too so don't say go see the doctor please) I kept researching more and discovered (or I believe I have discovered the culprit) I turned down the resolution and my eyes felt better almost instantly but it still bothers me to look at the screen. I think it is a combination of 60hz refresh rate and the resolution combined causing me issues. So I watched the skyrim trailer in hd with a lower resolution and it does not look near as good :unsure: How am I going to play skyrim in all it's full hd glory and not fry my eyes? Will getting a actual monitor that is 1080p with a faster refresh rate help you think? If so I would still like a decent size screen 24" to 27" would probably get it. I'm worried about the screen size and it still hurting my eyes though. I don't want to get a 27" and it still be unplayable. I have been looking at the asus 2ms screens. I would think that my larger tv is 5ms to 7ms which is said to not be the best for gaming anyways. On my 40" mmorpg's are unplayable in most cases because at the highest resolution the text is painfully small. So if I get a smaller screen I know I'll be sitting closer too. :psyduck: Right now I hooked up the smaller monitor again 17" 1280x1024 75hz and it is much better. Any advice would be completely appreciated and may be I can save someone else the same mistake.

Hey would you mind posting that video in the other thread: Epic TES Music Done!

Glad I'm not the only one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PW09lbR4OmM&feature=related I prefer Morrowind theme myself :thumbsup: although Skyrim's song is just Morrowind redone the original seems more mystical.

I just scored a 32gb ssd for 34$ just for Skyrim, So that's close to a $ a gb :thumbsup: . Well I ordered mounting brackets for a few dollars too because I don't like anything sliding around my case but that was optional.
