    Really annoying problem(s) uninstalling pci sound card, reverting to onboard sound

    Really annoying problem(s) uninstalling pci sound card, reverting to onboard soun Well, alright so if it's only meant to remove software and not the drivers, how do I (manually) remove the drivers? I could try your link, Sniper, but I kind of mistrust those driver software things. You sure it's...

    Really annoying problem(s) uninstalling pci sound card, reverting to onboard sound

    I'm using winXP Pro. I removed my PCI sound card (a SIIG SoundWave 7.1) from my computer. Then I wanted to uninstall all its drivers after I turned computer back on. For some reason, problems started. I could not find any reference to it in the Add/Remove programs in Control Panel. Also, the...

    Why in the world did my DVI quit working after I changed out my CPU?

    I'm pretty sure that the very first time what I did was: 1. had the monitor, computer, everything turned off fully. I was ready to power up the pc after doing all that tinkering. 2. I plugged the monitor directly into DVI port (still everything turned off) 3. Then I pushed power button to...

    Why in the world did my DVI quit working after I changed out my CPU?

    Lol. After reading your comment, I was about to try that... I was about to unplug vga and plug in dvi again, and thought, I will make sure to turn off the monitor first. So I did that, finished re-plugging as I was going to, switched the monitor back on expecting to try the source button... but...

    Why in the world did my DVI quit working after I changed out my CPU?

    I'm playing around with a socket A Athlon XP system. I just downgraded my cpu from 2500+ to the 1800+ so that I could stick the 2500+ into another box instead. I pretty much kept everything else the same. I changed a few other things, but they shouldn't affect anything. Here are the full...

    Sitecom WL344 USB Adapter (wireless N)

    Uhh... well wikipedia says that the throughput is typically 50–144 Mbit/s .. ? It's here if you scroll down to the 802.11n section. Also lists a similar number if you click on the main article and scroll down to the Comparison table at the bottom I've never dealt with your issue and don't know...

    Happy new year!!!

    Oh alright. Any foreign country -- that pretty much explains it. Man, I love clubbing and trying to hip hop dance like Chris Brown or something lol. (I'm not that good obviously but not too bad either) But I really got into it only like a couple years ago or less. I tried it back at like 19, I...

    Hardware Problems... Need Ideas

    Does it work without issues if you plug in another psu? Man, I think you should've started with the power supply! That's the easiest thing to switch out! :P

    Hardware Problems... Need Ideas

    This is probably stupid but it's not a temperature issue is it? I think in such situations, other than what you've already tried, people test power supply, so maybe try replacing that, and also the memory. Faulty memory sticks can give issues too, I think. Try using only 1 memory stick at a...

    What is causing fluctuating cpu usage spikes when using firefox?

    Well, to resurrect this thread ... according to other people who submitted reports of this, it has nothing to do with add-ons, since it happens even with zero add-ons. xbeatle's second link is a good one: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=444116 Comments like #15, #35 indicate that...

    Microsoft disconnects Xbox gamers

    DAAAMMMNNN!! The linked article is outdated, I guess, because this article here says the figure is around 1 million banned gamers! If the total # of worldwide gamers is 20 million, then that's a whole 5% of all xbox-ers who just got PWNED! lol kind of funny... but also crazy how massive of a...

    Help/suggestions about HD upgrade ... SATA vs. IDE, drive rpm speeds, etc.

    I have a sort of old computer with an asus a7n8x motherboard, and it has 2x IDE connectors, ultra dma 133/100/66/33. It seems like all the modern hard drives these days are SATA standard. So how is SATA better than IDE? I don't know much about it. I browsed through some available IDE HD's, and...

    It's over. Best Halloween Costume 2009. This guy. (Pic)

    Lol the point is to dress up and go party. If you're a young adult. If you're a kid it's to dress up and go around houses in the neighborhood collecting candy from friendly neighbors. It's basically like any costume carnival... what's confusing about that? haha

    Any Reviews on Windows 7 here!!!

    I really want to know if there is any reason to upgrade to Win7 from WinXP Pro. Is there?? Thanks!

    One last time about Windows 7

    Is it worth upgrading to Win7 from XP? (Given that my attitude is that it's not at all worth upgrading from XP to Vista... counterproductive, in fact.)

    Really Annoying Problem!!! Inconstently post/booting computer.

    Well that seems reasonable. Lol, if it says it needs 32 amps and you're only giving 18, it's bound to have some kind of problems. Is anything preventing you from connecting all 4 of them to the cards?

    Really Annoying Problem!!! Inconstently post/booting computer.

    Did you dig through your BIOS settings? I've had a problem with inconsistent computer behavior (although, not exactly like you describe), and I got it fixed partly by digging through BIOS settings. It was mismanaging my memory/fsb speeds. I forgot precisely how it went, but it would sometimes...
