So I just finished backing up a few of my DVDs, opened up WMC in Vista64 and started playing one as a test. Video is fine but for some reason there is no audio at all. I can hear sounds from WMC itself (like the menu sounds) but nothing from the movie. I checked all the volume controls (those...
Fairly simple question. I have gotten back into playing BF2 recently after being tied up in WoW for a while. I was wondering what newer games out there compare. The two main things I'm looking for are squad combat and BF2 sized maps (meaning 50-60 players).
COD:MW2 looked good but I really...
I hope this is the right forum for this but I was wondering if there is any sort of software to control my camera's functions with a PC. I have seen some older software around, Win95/98 days, but nothing newer that would support my camera, Fuji Finepix S5200.
Thanks in advance! :)
Hope this is the right forum but I just started using two monitors on a GeForce 9600GT and had a question. My goal was to have the game I was playing on my primary and Ventrilio and Firefox on the secondary. What I am trying to figure out is how to toggle between the game and the second...
Just bought the stock-clock 9600GT from EVGA and was wondering what kind of overclocks you 9600GT owners have been getting? Just kind of wondering what the limit is on the stock cooling. It's currently sitting in a CM690 case with a 120mm fan sitting right above the card exhausting the air...
I'm going to be getting two old PIII (socket 370) machines and was looking for some parts for upgrades/replacements. I'm just wondering, outside of the forum here, if anyone knows of a good online store to buy parts from? Newegg has some old PC 133 RAM but that's about it. I'll probably need...
So for my new build I wanted to add a VFD/LCD but I'm kind of stuck as to which one to get. I want to use it mostly for monitoring my CPU/GPU temps but also to diplay some media information and possibly cpu usage. The one I've been looking at is this Matrix Orbital Typhoon GX...
I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a new build and need to know which one of the following would be a good choice. It will be mostly used for gaming with the occasional movie as well. Trying to keep the price below $260.

Not sure if this belongs here or in the Display section but here goes.
I'm currently planing on getting a 8800GTS 512 (unless the 9800GTX offers a big increase when it arrives) and I'm stuck between a 22" and 24" monitor. I've gone through a lot of threads here and it seems, outside of...
Sorry for the long post but I'm at the point where I want to overhaul my home network instead of adding things bit by bit. Here is where I am currently at:
Main PC currently used as a file server as well as my daily use hardwired to a wired router downstairs
Wireless router (b/g) hardwired...
Okay, first new PC in a few years and I just want to make sure I'm balancing this out correctly. Using an existing Aerocool full tower case.
UPDATED SPECS BELOW...
I'm planning on some mild overclocking and I'm pretty sure that the BFT90 should work out fine. I wanted the Ultra120 but...
Sorry if this question has an obvious answer but I haven't put together a higher end system in quite some time. Last one was a P4 2.8 and a Radeon 9800....
I had a quick question regarding SLI and the latest Intel processors. Outside of the NVidia 780's (and 790's), are there any other...
O.K. Sorry if I've been creating a lot of threads lately, just that I am new to P4 overclocking.
Here is my questions. I've got my 2.8C up to 3.5 with my 250FSB and the ratio set to 5:4 so my memory is not an issue at the moment. I have the Vcore at 1.7v. So I run Prime and get errors...
I currently have an ABIT IC7 MAX3 that I bought because most of the reviews I saw showed that this was a great board OC'ing and preformance wise. Now however I am having issues with it dropping USB ports, the horrible onboard temp monitor, the entirely too loud OTES fan (got a watercooled setup...
O.K., I've had my ABIT IC7 MAX3 board for about three weeks now and the CPU temp issue is beginning to bug me. I really would like an accurate CPU temp reading since it seems that all the P4 ABIT boards read 8-10C higher.
My 2.8C is currently cooled by a Koolance EXOS unit. With my old air...
Just finished my first built from scratch PC and my first watercooling setup. Here is what I have:
Koolance Exos
P4 2.8C (clocked at 3.5 with a 250FSB 5:4 FSB:RAM ratio)
ABIT IC7 MAX3
1Gig Kingston HyperX PC3200
Sapphire Radeon 9800Pro 256Mb
Currently the Koolance is cooling the...
Well, here it is. I just finished this last weekend and wanted to get some feedback. I have built plenty of PC's before this, just not something from scratch.
This PC was actually built into my desk. It's running a P4 2.8C (@3.5Ghz), ABIT IC7 MAX3, 1Gig of Kingston HyperX PC3200, Sapphire...
