    Video display problem

    On an oldish PC, I was running a MX440 AGP (4x I think) card with the 56.72 drivers. The card finally gave up and I was able to get a used FX5200 card. Since they would use the same drivers, I simply swapped cards. All seemed to work fine, except for video in all users who have limited rights...

    Sound card manufacturers

    You can always download the drivers from Creative and save 20 quid. Warning - slow servers, large downloads. Nothing preventing you from downloading first and if successful, buy the OEM?

    Why doesn't my PCMCIA SD card reader recognize the correct size of my SD card?

    4 GB SD out for 2 years? I thought they were just recently released. The 2 GB ones have been out for some time. I had a mjor problem with my old Transcend USB 1.1 7-in-1 card reader when I popped in a 1GB SD card. Not only did it not work, the ******* reader corrupted the card, resulting in loss...

    Oh, this should take you back...

    Till a year ago I was quite happily using a similar BX440 system (Asus P3B-F and PIII-500, 512MB) as a spare for e-mail, Internet and Office on XP Home. My HD was on an ATA-133 controller card. One fine day it simply did not boot and I found that the motherboard had finally crapped out. I simply...

    Quality digital sound (PC)

    I do not think you are getting what we are trying to explain here. Getting 'digital' speakers for future proofing is absurd. The DAC in the speakers is not going to be better than what you may get in tomorrows sound cards/chips. If you are going to buy x-fi and digital speakers, you are...

    Quality digital sound (PC)

    Believe me, from mp3 there would be nothing you could hear which would make any difference between x-fi or M-Audio Revolution or on board sound with medium / high end computer speakers. Just go by what Soundman says - he has given you excellent advice. Actually it may be the other way around...

    Redbook --> FLAC --> MP3 batch conversion

    Yes, EAC gives you accurate rips of your CDs, once configured correctly. It does not extrapolate audio data and does multiple reads, compares and then rips. I believe that EAC/flac also apparently support cue sheets and such so that you can actually always get your original CD back. (Note that I...

    Why wont this HP Printer Install?

    If it stopped working suddenly, it could be a printer malfunction. Have you tried switching off the mains power to it completely to try and reset it? Or run a test print (not fax).

    Strange problem with Audigy 2 ZS, can anyone please advise

    Not too sure how you achieve this. I think you need to disable your onboard sound in bios before adding your sound card and installing its drivers.

    USB devices don't initialize on startup

    After updating your bios did you load setup defaults. Usually I find that whether Intel or AMD, if I do not do this, invariably I get usb problems with kb/mouse, etc. Edit: After loading setup defaults, save and exit, re-enter bios setup again for custom settings, if any.

    Search this thread... It IS there on the CD. Just simply insert the CD after XP has finished booting. It will find the driver and install itself and the yellow exclamation will disappear.

    I am using 1006. Since all is working properly, have not bothered to update to 1010 or 1013. However, I believe most people are happy with 1010/1013.

    Asus a8n-e..

    6.70 (do NOT use any older version) with nVidia ide and ncq, but without nVidia firewall. You can always try out the ide drivers and if you have problems uninstall them. I also use the HD160JJ - quite a nice drive.

    No problem really with the onboard NIC LAN. Just problems with nVidia AA/firewall drivers. Try another cable and see.

    Sound problems (most likely soundcard)

    Speaker settings? You can look up Creative's KB for the pin-out assignments. The first is digital out, second line in, third front speakers, fourth rear speakers and left side and fifth and last sub/centre and right side. The fourth and fifth need a four-pole mini to 3-RCA if you want side...

    Sorry e30, I do not have the time either. This is about helping other users, not to prove who is right or wrong. I gave the reasoning behind my assumption that it is not ambient case temp. reported by PC Probe (since it mis-labels chipset fan as power fan also). Maybe I am wrong, whoever wants...

    Asus a8n-e..

    I think I would beg to disagree, since within 2 minutes of boot-up the 'MB Temp' reading on probe is 38C in my case and sort of stays at that level. Considering an ambient temp. of around 26-28C, there is no way that the general MB temp in the case can rise by 10-12C in such a short time. It can...

    nVidia IDE driver??

    HT speaker setup for my computer

    The best way for speakers really is to listen, listen and listen and select the ones that sound good to you / fit in your budget. With $1,000, I perhaps would buy a great receiver ($600) and sub ($200) initially with a pair of good bookshelfs ($200). When I saved up some more money, I would get...

    Asus a8n-e..

    Even though I just got the new bigger fan and it is not very loud, I feel that something running all the time at 6k rpm is not going to last for more than a few months. I intend trying keeping similar chipset cooling solutions at hand so when the new fans also fails, I will simply change to the...

    DVD resolution on comp

    There does not seem to be any real solution for this. I also found this when I shifted to LCD. While everything else is razor sharp, DVDs tended to look quite crappy full screen, especially bad quality DVDs. As other posters have said, the problem is mostly the resolution. Try a VCD which is...

    Asus a8n-e..

    That does seem somewhat high... With room temp. at around 26-30c, my CPU rarely goes above 44c at load and is usually 33-36c idle. I had an old board (with old high rpm chipset fan) which just failed recently and got the new fan from Asus - it is larger, quieter and runs at 5,625/5,818 rpm...

    Mine is in slot 2, never really had any problem, either with CD drivers or updated drivers / apps from their website. The latest drivers / apps are a good improvement.

    Asus a8n-e..

    The delayed boot times are usually on account of some Sata-2 drives (maxtor/hitachi) ncq incompatibility. Check your event logs. I tend to agree with this and do feel that $200 is a bit too much, otherwise it is a pretty decent and stable board.

    Going from a Palm E2 to Pocket PC

    I find that the biggest problem with PDAs/phones is complete lack of cross syncing / open formats. For simple things like address books / calendar and notes, there is complete chaos. TB 1.5 can import well, but cannot export (without a convoluted process) so you are stuck with it. Palms however...

    Asus a8n-e..

    A64 is very finicky about number of sticks, since it has a very high speed controller on chip AFAIK. If you want to run at best speed/dual channel, with large RAM, your option is 2 sticks of 1GB each in place of earlier 512MB sticks. If you add another 1GB, your memory will slow to 2T/333MHz...

    Thinking of getting a new set of speakers...have no clue.

    I am not too sure about this but if your board has digital out, then receiver+speakers through digital may be a better way out - you do not need a $100 sound card. You use the receiver's DAC and upmixing features.
