    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 1600 $70 after $20 rabate

    Just got it. I installed the latest drivers and use Beyond TV. Installation was super easy and it worked right away. I've only test analog cable so far, will order an HDTV antenna later. The picture quality is decent. Not nearly as good as it looks on my TV when I have it in full screen, but...

    Hauppauge WinTV-HVR 1600 $70 after $20 rabate

    I bought one of these last night -- it should arrive sometime late next week. I've never used a TV Tuner card before, so please pardon my ignorance. I get analog cable TV (cable goes directly from the wall into the back of my TV). If I buy a splitter and run a cable into this card, it should...

    Power supply issue, motherboard issue, or neither?

    So I tested another power supply and the same problem is happening. It just seems weird this kind of thing would happen with a motherboard issue.

    Power supply issue, motherboard issue, or neither?

    A couple weeks ago, a problem began with my PC. I would shut down in XP, and while my screen would go blank, my power light would stay on and my hard drive light would also stay on -- although there was no hard drive activity. This happened every time I tried to shut it down for the past two...

    MacBook Pro RAM upgrading..

    Yep, you guys are right about the RAM installation. I just had to read further into the manual. (doh!). Good to know I don't have to wait to install any apps. Besides a delayed DNS look-up issue (since resolved, mainly..) this is so killer. Switched from a DELL Inspiron to MBP, what a...

    MacBook Pro RAM upgrading..

    I just got my new MacBook Pro. I ordered only 512mb of RAM, as I ordered 2gb separately from Crucial. Question #1: Should I wait to install applications (Adobe Suite, Macromedia Suite, etc..) until I upgrade the RAM? In other words, do the programs configure themselves during installation...

    Spontaneous reboot..

    This weekend, my computer spontaneously rebooted. This has never happened before on this machine. Previously when I've had this problem, it's always been a RAM issue. However -- it usually happens shortly after I build a machien due to faulty RAM. I've had this RAM from Crucial for almost 2...

    Dell Insiprion 9300 annoyances

    Hey everyone -- First off, I've asked these questions on the Dell forums and while a few people have responded, nobody seems to have any idea why I'm having these two annoying problems. Strange, since this laptop is just a clean re-format (to get rid of all the junk Dell puts on here)...

    Save color settings on an Inspiron 9300?

    No, I do not believe I have that application installed at all. I reformatted the machine when I got it. Any other ideas anyone?

    Firefox question.

    I use Firefox and many times when I go to a web site, (ie. webster.com) it tells me I need to install a missing plugin, such as Quicktime. I already had quicktime installed. Despite this, I go and reinstall it. It still gives me this error. The same thing happens with WMP. How do I get Firefox...

    Save color settings on an Inspiron 9300?

    I already asked this question on the DELL forums but haven't gotten any responses. It seems like it should be a simple thing to do. The contrast on my new Dell Inspiron 9300 notebook is the only thing I don't like as default in this beautiful 17" truelife display. So I adjusted it in the...

    Cannot installing/uninstall Creative Soundblaster drivers.

    So I installed my Soundblaster Live 5.1 drivers/utilities from the CD that came with my card. For some reason no mp3s would play as my system gave me some error that I needed to reinstall my sound drivers. So I went to go uninstall them from add/remove programs, and the installshield gives me an...

    "Found New Hardware" Intel 82801db Ultra ATA Controller

    Ever since I updated the chipset drivers for my Asus P4PE motherboard (so it would use USB 2.0), I got a message in my systray every time I boot my computer up that says: "Found New Hardware" Intel 82801db Ultra ATA Controller" After about a minute it says it was unable to install this...

    Compusa, Sony 19" lcd monitor $499

    The Viewsonic looks very nice--but I've heard only endless raves about the Sony model. The swivel and adjustable stand on the Viewsonic is very nice, but I don't know how how much I'd actually use ths swivel. Although I admit the viewsonic is a more 'eye pleasing' monitor (aethstetically)...

    Compusa, Sony 19" lcd monitor $499

    Damn, unfortunately this isn't gonna work. On the CompUSA page, it shows that the $599 is AFTER the $100 MIR. (Click on Mail in Rebate on the link and it explains that). So I guess the PM isn't possible. Bummer.. I saw people doing this before, but I guess the price was raised. If anyone else...

    Compusa, Sony 19" lcd monitor $499

    Was going to go for this deal today, but even though on the CompUSA page it lists the price clearly as $599 pre $100 MIR, it adds it as $699 to the shopping cart. It's also not available on jr.com anymore. Anyone know where else/what I could do to get this beautify for $599 pre $100 MIR? Need to...

    Recover corrupted Excel files?

    Does anyone know of the best way (hopefully without purchasing some software) of recovering a corrupted Excel spreadsheet XLS file? I greatly appreciate any comments/advice. This is sort of a pressing matter today. Thanks.

    Win XP Explorer.com consuming nearly 100% CPU usage.

    I've had a problem for quite a while now, where explorer.exe will consume nearly 100% of my CPU usage. Now I've searched google and various forums to see if this is a common issue. It appears it is, but nobody has a real solution. My problem is directly related to my entering a directory that...

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    I thought you all might be interested in what ended up resolving the issue. First I just want to sincerely thank everyone who gave their two cents since there was nothing in it for you ;). I really appreciate that. I put my old SB Live Value from my current computer into this old one and it...

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    Yes, I've tried forcing the drivers in Windows to the exact device. It appears to accept this, but then it won't work as a sound card at all and installing the full LiveDrvUni-Pack (which includes some nice mixer stuff..) it will not recognize there is any Sound Blaster card installed. I...

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    Yep, I've tried every PCI slot on the board. I just flashed the BIOS to no effect. Sorrow. I guess I will try my Soundblaster Live Value from my other machine next in it and see if that works. I tried an Audigy here at work and that didn't work either. It seems like the motherboard can't read...

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    Yeah, I just tried the Dell drivers from www.creative.com and it didn't work either. I found a friend who had a Soundblaster Live 5.1 CD and installing the drivers off there didn't work either. It continues to only see it as a "Multimedia Audio Device". I'm about to flash the BIOS and see if...

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    No, that's not it. Windows recognized it immediately on my other computer and it is not recognized no matter what drivers I use. Frustrating. I don't have a CD as it was purchased OEM. Any other ideas?

    SB Live 5.1 Not recognized.

    I recently purchased a Soundblaster Live 5.1 for an old computer I am putting together for my gf. I've built several computers so I'm very familar with the procedure. When I first booted up the machine, it recognized there was new hardware but just claimed it was 'multimedia audio device'. It...

    Free Basic Cable if you have Cox Broadband in some areas

    Yeah, I used to get extended cable for free with internet access with EarthLink here in Raleigh. Was great. Only worked on the cable line that had the cable modem. I just ran a splitter, one line to the modem, one to the TV, wahla. Moved into a new place in Raleigh, did the same thing, and...

    Fiber Cable connection in Stockholm, beyond speeds.

    My friend who lives in Stockholm Sweden said he recently got an ad explaining that fiber-cable was now available in his area. It offers 10mb/sec download speeds, and 8mb/sec upload speeds. It costs $50/month. This is obviously completely unbelievable, and he will be signing up within a week or...

    Please help, new system, suddenly strange issues.

    I actually had my old hard drive (which was a failing ibm deskstar 60gxp) hooked up to this machine when I first built it, along with the new WD. I had it as a primiary slave device so I could back everything up. The WD has always been the primiary master device. I started wondering last night...
