Typically windows only likes one sound "card" at a time. Try disabling your onboard in the bios. Also, go into the windows sound properties and verify that the playback volume settings are not muted and that they are raised to 100%
He is probably measuring between the + and - 5 volt pins and between the + and - 12 V pins. That would easily explain the doubling. OP you should be measuring between a colored wire and the ground pin.
I did read what you posted and you are wrong. Look on the bottom of the datasheet, they list multiple pin configurations. The electrical characteristics are specified on a per pin basis which is stated in the * on the bottom of the page.
LOL, you think a plastic contact has "Electrical Characteristics"???
Voltage: 600V*
Current: 13.5A*
Contact Resistance: 3.5mOhm
And to answer your previous voltage drop point...there you have it...the contact has a max resistance of 3.5mOhm * 13.5A = .04725V Max Voltage drop
I will save you some time. The wiring on the connectors of your typical power supply are 16 AWG. These are rating at 22A max current capability.

There are 2 12V connections on a PCI-E connector. This allows a max safe current draw of 44A from a 1...
The modular connectors of a power supply are more than capable of handling the current draw. If they were not, they would get very warm and possibly melt/fail.
Again, I would LOVE to see proof that manufacturers are using contacts that are underrated for their current draw.
Nice math. What about a video card which has significant current draw? Why would an engineer design as card with a power connector in that situation if it is an issue? They even include SPLITTERS sometimes with the graphics card. There is another connection that should be "unacceptable" to you.
Show me a review that shows a very negative effect of the modular cables on the voltage regulation and current capability of the power supply.
You are speculating over issues that should not occur with well designed contacts. Yes, there will be a small voltage drop due to the resistive...
Please provide proof that current SATA DVD burners fail or have problems more than IDE.
I have no idea what you are talking about as I have used 2 SATA burners in 2 different computers with no problems as have many people.
You do know that SATA burners right now are the SAME as IDE burners...
You would be better off buying 2x 500 GB drives than one 1TB drive right now. If for some reason you hate having two drives show up in windows you could always do "Raid" JBOD
If you are connecting to a CRT via an analog connection you can't expect the connection to look very good. Extend your desktop onto the TV and enable the full screen video mode in the ATI CCC to solve the black window problem.
Seems like it has been commonly accepted amongst the community that if you have a problem with your computer you can post in either General Hardware OR Technical Support. It seems that obvious technical support threads are not locked when they are made in general hardware so people choose to...
The Corsair is 126 over there.
The memory I linked to uses Micron D9's that everyone is going crazy over as well.
I have no idea what you were trying to say in your first sentence
