Well, I am on vacation for a few days. My granddaughter is graduating high school tomorrow. While I am out, I thought I might try to use a WMC to power my HDTV. I chanced upon a USB to VGA/DVI/HDMI converter in a Micro Center near me. I am thinking that the problem that I was having with setting up a Windows 7 computer to get it to authenticate with my HDHome Run Prime may be solved. I will try to get the Windows 7 system to use the new adapter as the primary display. The motherboard in the system is pretty old, but still has some life left in it. It should be powerful enough to crunch through the video feed. All it is doing is passing the video feed on to the HDTV. We shall see.

This is a blog mostly about techie things, what I am doing to my apartment network on the cheap, IOT, 3D Printing, Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, ESP32, ESP8266, Home Automation, Personal Weather Stations, Things That Go Bump in the Night, and some side issues that need discussing. Remember, sometimes the journey to an end is as much fun as the goal achieved!
