Right chaps,
I am hoping someone will be able to assist me. All this HD stuff is all a bit new to me!

This weekend I am picking up my nice new Pioneer PDP436XDE Plasma. :D
I am hoping to connect a PC to the VGA socket. Is there anything I need to do with the Graphics card on the PC to look the dogs doodars?
PC Spec is.. p4 2.4 /1GB/200GB/ATI 9800seAIW / WIN XP

What I predominantly looking for is the ability to get the best possible image. Do I need any other software? dvd software? scaler? tweakers?

As I said, bit of a numpty when it comes to this.. I am hoping I can just plug it all in and HEY presto.
I am looking to upgrade my standalone DVD player in the next few months, or will the PC be as good/better?
