    Recommend a 4-DVI video card?

    So this guy will run both the two DVI connections and the two Display port connections simultaneously (provided I have the right adapters)?

    Recommend a 4-DVI video card?

    It's for someone else, and they're not a gamer. I only said video editing as a kind of short-hand to make sure I picked the most demanding non-gaming function. He should be able to do anything, short of gaming, with zero performance hit. I don't know. Cost? I assumed something like that...

    Recommend a 4-DVI video card?

    No brand loyalty here, and gaming isn't really a priority. Single card, support four monitors over DVI. Over PCIe obviously. Here, this might be easier: Four simultaneous live DVI headers (4 monitors active at once) Single card Windows desktop only (no gaming priority, some video editing)...

    [Recommendations] USB 5.1 DAC w/ Coaxial connection

    So no matter what USB sound device I use, it will ALWAYS be only stereo? If that's the case, how do I go about solving this problem? Laptop with only stereo analog out. But it has USB obviously. 5.1 speakers with analog in and "DIGITAL IN" (an orange female RCA jack, which I've learned is...

    [Recommendations] USB 5.1 DAC w/ Coaxial connection

    Hey guys. I'm working with a hearing aid center on their calibration machine, its a laptop that runs the setup and it needs to be mobile because they move it to an other location once a month for some charity thing. Anyway, the laptop doesn't have 5.1 out, just stereo. I ordered a USB to...

    Comparison: 2x 6990 vs 2x 7970 ? For three monitors (eyefinity)

    Hi guys, I'm wondering what the general consensus is here on what's better. I currently have a single XFX 6990 and, cost not an issue, which would give me better performance with three monitors at 3x1920x1200? Get a second 6990, or give that to a friend and get two 7970's? Somewhat unrelated...

    Least expensive 3 simultaneous output card?

    Found the solution, answering question for the search engines in case anyone else needs it: as of date of posting, (667XZWF4) XFX HD-667X-ZWF4 Radeon HD 6670 seems like the best option. About $85 USD if you shop around. DVI / DP / HDMI

    Least expensive 3 simultaneous output card?

    Need to run three monitors, not for gaming, just desktop, via a single card. Something new if possible. What do you guys think is best?

    HTC Vivid on NET10?

    Well, when I boot the phone, I get no signal. I get plenty of signal with my AT&T SIM. Do they use different towers or something?

    HTC Vivid on NET10?

    Got an AT&T HTC Vivid here, and a NET10 SIM card. I noticed there was a SIM Unlock option in the boot loader, but it just gives an SDcard error and asks if I want to reboot. I've already tried factory resetting the phone, and booting it fresh with the new SIM in, but I'm not sure what else is...

    Wifi tethering with Droid X on Verizon running android 2.3.3 (rooted)?

    Any idea how I get it not to piggy back? :P All I'm doing is just launching the program, granting it admin rights, clicking the "enable wifi tether" button, and then connecting to it with my laptop, and the laptop redirects to the Verizon "buy this service" page.

    Wifi tethering with Droid X on Verizon running android 2.3.3 (rooted)?

    Hey guys, just wondering what the perfered method for wifi tethering is now. Before I upgraded to 2.3.3, barnacle worked fine. Now it doesnt. Also tried this guy, but it seems like it's just piggybacking off Verizon's built in app (tethering technically works to the laptop, but of course there's...

    AMD CrossFireX Drivers - Opportunity Lost @ [H]

    Audio problem with analog 5.1 headset (Roccat Kave) and stereo 2.0 desktop speakers

    The pins haven't been changed. Remember, before I got the 5.1 headset, I was using a Stereo headset, and Stereo speakers. It was working fine then. The green plug on the front panel outputs exactly what the green plug on the rear panel outputs. The only plugs I have on the front panel are...

    Audio problem with analog 5.1 headset (Roccat Kave) and stereo 2.0 desktop speakers

    The speakers use standard minijack (8th inch i believe), and just one of them, for left and right. The headset uses the same, just more of them, for sub, center, front left/right, rear left/right.

    Audio problem with analog 5.1 headset (Roccat Kave) and stereo 2.0 desktop speakers

    Because that's basically what the front panel is doing anyway, it's just "splitting" it at the soundcard (motherboard). A splitter would only split one channel; which would I split? Center? Left/Right? Sub? I would still only be getting one channel to the speakers. I want to be able to play a...

    Insufficient permissions to run explorer.exe?

    I've mostly given up on trying to repair the profile. It seems more trouble than its worth given that I'm going to reinstall windows anyway when I buy an SSD. That brings me back to the same issue though; when I do reinstall, I need to figure out the proper method for setting up the junction...

    Vista - Security Center

    Yeah I know about the "change the way it alerts me" method. But that method is the one I was referring to when I said I didn't want to turn off ALL security center alerts. Changing it here is a global policy change that cannot be itemized to only disabling the warning me of UAC status but...

    Vista - Security Center

    Sorry I wasn't clear, posting from phone, dont want to type too much. I've already turned UAC off. I just want Security Center to stop warning of that, but not stop warning of everything else, which prohibits turning it (security center) all the way off.

    Vista - Security Center

    Been bugging me for a while but I just normally get fed up and turn it all the way off. Where do you turn off security center alerts individually instead of turning the whole thing off? I just want it to ignore the state of UAC but not A/V state or windows updates etc.

    Upgrading hardware on an 8 year old linux install

    I'm just doing SUSE as that's what they already had and I've been poking around on it for a few days so it's starting to feel familiar. It ultimately doesn't matter which it is as it's going to sit there for years and never get touched, even for updates. There's this Rapid Reports program or...

    going from IDE to SATA without reinstall of win7

    I think you mean going from PATA to SATA. ;) Technically both are IDE. Like a flathead and phillips are both screwdrivers. You can't go "from a screwdriver to a flathead" for example. IDE stands for Integrated Drive Electronics, which basically means any hard drive with a controller board...
