So I was tight for money and sold my FubarIII, and now instantly regret it. The downgrade to onboard sound (ALC889 on the Gene-Z) is horrendous, and I am now immediately looking for a cheap substitute to tide me over for a year or so. In the mean time I am using the Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi...

I'm having an issue with my Microsoft Word (both 2007 and 2010). Whenever I try to apply formatting to some text to be either the Style of "No Spacing", "Heading 1", or "Heading 2" it refuses to apply. Even the hover preview doesn't work. However, all other Styles work just as they should. What...

So, I'm debating on getting a new pair of headphones dedicated for work. I am essentially a grad student/researcher, so I sit at the desk a lot and would prefer to minimize any sound I'm creating without compromising on volume too much. I am looking for minimal sound leakage, good sound...

Okay, I didn't notice this until today, but my music sounds different depending on the volume I have my devices set at. There is my PC (Foobar via WASAPI), Fubar III, then M-Audio AV40 (I have the headphone amp in the middle because I use my headphones a lot). Obviously, when I make either...

Okay, I've been recently trying to think things out on what the next step of my audio evolution will be. I currently have an X-Fi XtremeMusic, as well as an M-Audio AV40 and ATH-AD700. Everything sounds fine and nice, however as some people may have read in other posts I have made, I get weird...

So, I got my hands on a 30ish year old Technics SL-3200 in great shape with a brand new cartridge and hooked it up to my computer via a small 9V powered preamp. Connecting it went all fine and dandy, but I'm left with the ground wire that I don't know what to do with. I was originally planning...

This may seem like a silly question, but I didn't think of it until today. Would there be any noticeable loss in quality if I would plug my headphones (ATH-AD700) into the jack in my speakers (Logitech X-530). I only ask because my PC is a pain in the arse to get to, and I'm pretty sure that...

Since I do not know the specific hardware that is causing the problem, I thought I would post here. For the last few days, at random times my computer would undergo heavy harddrive activity, and then start locking up, then freeze completely. It started happening more and more often, and then...

I have an NEC MultiSync FP912SB montior, that for about a year and a half has been working absolutely amazingly. This past week though, it has become quite odd. At first, it had been quite a bit darker than it should have been, forcing me to go into the SuperBright mode, as well as losing DDC...

I wanted to know if there was a wy to make a program (maybe throught the use of a firewall) to make a program have access between computers on a LAN (or at least a host computer), but not access the internet. In this case, pulling the internet plug is not doable, since the computers are on a...

I got a little bored, and wanted to see if I could combine all of my electronics, namely my stereo system to the PC. I was able to get it inputted into the PC with no problem at all. The problem that I have is, the speakers that came with the stero aren't self amplifying. I want these...

Before passing my oldest computers off to my younger brother, I was thinking of doing some really cheap upgrades to it. It is an Aptive E3U, from the end of 1998. It came with 350 MHz AMD K6-2, 64MB SD-RAM (upgraded to 192), a 70W PSU (upgaded to 250W), and the real kick in the pants, an onboard...
