    Sound issue with ASRock Z77 Pro4-M and Realtek drivers. Can anyone help?

    That's a possibility too, but there's really no way to be certain unless I try every board they have at the store until I get a properly working one, lol.

    Sound issue with ASRock Z77 Pro4-M and Realtek drivers. Can anyone help?

    I'm not sure if you read my initial post, but I only experience the sound issues when I have the Realtek HD audio drivers installed. If I uninstall the Realtek drivers and go with the generic Windows audio drivers, then there are no issues with the sound at all. That leaves me to believe that...

    Sound issue with ASRock Z77 Pro4-M and Realtek drivers. Can anyone help?

    I dont care much for fancy features. I would never use them. I'm not an audiophile or anything, I just like stuff to work. I would mostly listen to MP3s, and watch YouTube videos. I'm not a big gamer either. The computer will be used mostly for everyday stuff (Internet, email, MS Office...

    Help me build an HTPC

    Thanks! The A/V racks goes into a storage room where I keep my gun safe. It's not really being used besides that so I figured I'd cut into the wall and slide the cabinet in to keep it flush with the wall. All wires are in that storage room and out of sight. My goal was to keep it pretty...

    Progress pics... Cleaned up the insides of the HTPC best I could. I ran into a little problem, as I had only one ethernet cable that runs into the living room and I had to connect both my PS3 and my new HTPC. I found an old D-Link router in my garage and used it as a switch. Now everything...

    Help me build an HTPC

    Unless I'm mistaken, I don't remember ever asking for advice. I asked for an opinion of my build. Not advice. Two totally different things. I never asked, "What should I buy?" myke ps. Thanks for calling me a hard headed little boy :)

    Help me build an HTPC

    Well, here's my logic: If all Raidmax PSUs are so unreliable and/or tend to blow up, then, how are they still in the PSU business? Why does it get decent reviews on Newegg.com? I know it's not perfect but overall, not horrible either. That's just my opinion, and I am still entitled to it I...

    Help me build an HTPC

    1. Why not? It carries a 2-yr warranty. 2. So you're saying that my PSU will blow up my whole build? Possible, sure. But very unlikely. Jeez man, why do you think everybody is out to screw you over? Past experience? myke

    Help me build an HTPC

    Because I want to build as much HTPC I can with a budget of $500. With shipping and tax, the above mentioned parts totaled $499 :) Hey, if it blows, then I'll just RMA it, and deal with it from there. No worries. myke

    Help me build an HTPC

    You guys make it sounds like the PSU is gonna blow up a week after I get it. It's gotten 4/5 out of over 500+ reviews, it can't be THAT bad. It's just a basic HTPC guys, I'm not building a super high performance overclocking machine. myke

    I wanted a modular PSU to keep the inside of the HTPC neat. I absolutely hate wire clutter. The ECS board has gotten decent reviews, I've owned ECS boards in the past and never really had a problem? myke

    Help me build an HTPC

    I've always wanted to build an HTPC that would serve mainly as a movie jukebox. It'd make my life so much more convenient if I could just search and play my movies thru a hard drive. I'd like to put together an HTPC piece by piece, but on a budget. I'd like to keep the total below $500 if...

    Which notebook/netbook for traveling?

    HDD doesnt matter to me, I'm gonna slap in an SSD anyway. 1GB of extra RAM is no big deal. I can always just pop in a 2GB stick later on (ram prices are going down again) to make it 4GB. I've never used Bluetooth, nor do I have the need for it. myke

    Which notebook/netbook for traveling?

    I actually saw the Acer 1830 series online and have been reading good things about it. I'll probably end up getting the i3 version. I have no need to pay the extra $100 for the i5 version since it will not be used for any heavy computing. $599 from Amazon: Acer Aspire TimelineX...

    Which notebook/netbook for traveling?

    Need some input regarding upgrading my computer

    Another Win 7 question... I'm debating whether to get the OEM or retail version of Win7 Pro 64-bit. I heard that the OEM versions are tied to the mobo they are installed in, and you can't install it on a new PC if you decide to upgrade later on, or if your current PC dies. I will upgrade...

    Need some input regarding upgrading my computer

    So I need to get 2GB more, but it can only be DDR2? I might just get the 1TB Hitachi, since it's only $20 more, compared to the 500GB Seagate. And, I don't connect to a work network. I do have a wireless network/router set up at home, but Win7 Home should still allow me to share/transfer files...
