I have a fairly simple question here. I'm trying to get my headphones and X-Fi Titanium HD sound card properly set up for movie watching with PowerDVD, and seem to have hit a weird snag: If I set my Windows 7 speaker configuration to 5.1 Surround and then run the speaker test, I can hear all...

I know that using the dedicated headphone jack on the rear of the X-Fi Titanium HD mutes the analog RCA outputs. However, does this mute the optical output as well?

Has anyone attempted to play Dark Messiah of Might and Magic in Windows 7 64-bit? I recently downloaded the game from my Steam account to try on my new computer; specifically because it's supposed to be good in 3D Vision. However, upon launching the game, nothing happens. Well, the screen...

After a few weeks of on-and-off trying, I finally got my i7 2600k CPU to complete 8 hours of error-free Prime95 blend tests at 4.8 Ghz. I had to use a vCore of 1.48, though. Is 1.48 too high? I've read that anything under 1.52 should be safe for 24/7 use. So am I OK as far as voltage? Also...

I recently purchased Dark Messiah of Might and Magic off of Steam, and can't get the d-pad of my Belkin Nostromo n52 Speedpad to work as a joystick. I like to use the Nostromo's d-pad to move forward, back, strafe left, and strafe right in FPS games. Other Source engine games support joysticks...

I'm playing through FarCry for the first time, now that I finally have a PC that can run it with all the bells and whistles... I want to play through FarCry before playing Crysis to prevent myself from becoming spoiled! Anyway, is it possible to use both AA and HDR simultaneously on the 1.32...

My PC is running Vista x64 Home Premium, with one 74-GB Western Digital Raptor and one 320-GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 drive on an Asus Maximus Formula SE motherboard. The drives are configured in SATA ACHI mode in the BIOS, with the latest Intel ACHI Matrix Storage Manager drivers...

I'm having trouble connecting my Maximus Formula SE's on-board USB headers to the front panel USB jacks on my Lian-Li V1200 case. I connect them, but the USB jacks don't seem to work. The case's connectors are keyed, so they only plug into the on-board header one way; so connecting these seems...

Has anyone successfully connected their X-Fi to their case's front panel AC'97 audio connectors? I bought one of these cables from Performance PCs. When the cable is connected to my X-Fi, the card only outputs sound from the left speaker channel. And when I plug headphones into my case's...

I just finished assembling most of my new computer last night; I'm just waiting for the video card to arrive. Anyway, I installed my motherboard into my Lian-Li V1200 case, which places the motherboard in an inverted fashion with the Sound Blaster X-Fi sound card near the top of the case...

I originally posted this question in the Overclocking and Cooling forum, but posting it here might make more sense. Sorry about the cross-post. Does anyone have experience mounting a Tuniq Tower 120 onto an Abit IP35-Pro Motherboard inside a Lian Li V-Series case? I have a Lian Li V1200, and...

Does anyone have experience mounting a Tuniq Tower 120 onto an Abit IP35-Pro Motherboard inside a Lian Li V-Series case? I have a Lian Li V1200, and am wondering if I would be able to mount a Tuniq Tower onto an IP35 motherboard with the fan aligned with the rear exhaust. The CPU socket on...

I've been using a Belkin Nostromo Speedpad n52 for awhile now, and LOVE the freakin' thing. Unfortunately, I'm building a new PC that will feature Windows Vista. I'm not sure if Belkin plans on releasing Vista drivers or Loadout Manager software for the Nostromo, so I'm considering changing to...

Hello, I'm building a new PC in a Lian-Li V1200 case, and am wondering if a Scythe Infinity would fit in this case on a BadAxe2 motherboard while pulling air front-to-back out the rear exhaust fan. Due to the orientation of the CPU socket on most motherboards that I've seen, the CPU is placed...
