921 Install Help!

[kpayne]

Ok, I took the plunge and picked up a 921 at costco today, Now I need to figure out what cable to buy

I have a projector with a M1DA input, as it is everything goes through the tuner card in my htpc and out to the projector via vga (and a vga to M1DA adaptor cable).

So, my choices are:
DVI-A to analog vga cable
DVI-D to M1DA single-link digital cable
VGA to component adapter which the cable place says may not work with Y-Pb-Pr
or can I just stick a standard dvi-vga adapter for a video card on the back of the 921??

any suggestions??

The DVI-I/VGA adapter should work. You mention the VGA to Component adapter which confuses me. The 921 has Component output.

Any of the other solutions are up to you and what you have available. They should all deliver a nice HD picture. The DVI-D to M1DA digital cable may present the best solution by keeping uneccessary D/A and A/D conversions to a minimum.
