No sound in Vista/WMP11

Just an update...there does appear to be sound but it is so soft I can only hear it in a silent room even though every control I have is set to max. Does anyone know of a secret volume control in Vista?

ASUS A8N SLI Beep Code

I am getting a long beep code and maybe two short beeps at the end of it. The short ones are really short so I am not sure if they are real or not. I've read elsewhere that one long and two short means either the video card or the port is bad. I replaced the video card with a new one but am...

a8n-sli chipset heatsink fan

Just so everyone knows...the Zalman is not the only passive heatsink that works on this board. I put a CoolerMaster Northbridge Chipset Cooler PAC-P01 on mine. Then I took the new fan ASUS sent me, removed the cover and heatsink, then glued the fan to the top of the CM heatsink. So far, it...

Email scanner won't connect with server

No. I am using the NVidia firewall that came with the motherboad. Another detail: The popup says - AVG E-mail Scanner AutoPOP3:Connecting to ens1.eatel.net. My mail server is at mail.eatel.net. Is this the problem?

Email scanner won't connect with server

Thanks for your reply but I am not sure about it. If there is a resident email scanner in Outlook, how do I turn it off so that I dont get conflicts with the AVG scanner? If my question is dumb please explain why. Thanks again...

Email scanner won't connect with server

I have used the AVG Free virus scanning software by Grisoft for a few months now with no problems. A couple of weeks ago, Outlook started hanging up when I opened it. A popup box labelled AVG Email Scanner opens over the sys tray. In the box it says connecting to the ip of my email service...

Fans slowing down on MB

It does have a fan controller in the bios but I have always left it off. I read in one of these forums that the controller ran the fan too fast so it stays off.

Fans slowing down on MB

:confused: I have an ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe mother board. The fan on the chipset recently started having difficulty starting up. Once it does start up it runs at about 3 - 4K RPM, every once in a while it slows and spikes downward to <1000 RPM. The voltages coming from the PSU appear to be...

A8N- SLI slow boot?

On another forum, someone told me to set my hard drive to Single instead of Master. It worked like a charm. If I hadn't been a noob maybe I would have known but...
