    Speakers not working

    Did someone just get pwned? Just for everyone's amusement.. My network cards (nVIDIA) stopped working on my Striker Extreme the other day. They were detected, but wouldn't communicate whatsoever. Wireless worked, however. Know what the solution was? You guessed it. Reset the BIOS by the...

    Speakers not working

    What am I missing here? lmao. After putting all the pieces together it sure looks like PC eye's last stab at trying to establish credibility.. Of course you two have quite the dialogue going on on his profile, with it absolutely chock full of digs from him related to this thread. "Stop the...

    Speakers not working

    cool :) Working on the front is better than not working at all ;) Incidentally, just so you know, when a Dell BIOS goes wonky, it can go REALLY wonky, such that things appear broken or missing. I've run into it numerous times. That would be the difference between experience and search engine...

    Speakers not working

    Hehehe. I was going to keep my mouth shut, but I guess I can now say that I'm not the only one who found the entire circumstance odd... But it did give a certain unmentionable plenty of chance to toot his own horn, bash me and play the "holier than thou" hypocricy card in his blog. lol. I'm...

    Motherboards Dead?

    There's a reset jumper on the motherboard. Set it to clear and take the battery out for five minutes. After, put the jumper back to the original setting, replace the battery and try starting it back up again. Reset the BIOS to default, save and exit and it should be ok after that....We hope.

    Speakers not working

    If assuming someone made the simple effort of checking to see if it was plugged into the right place, after going to all the trouble to check the speakers everywhere and anywhere else, before coming in to allow her friend (I was informed he was a friend on my profile page) to showcase his...

    is this case any good?

    To the OP: Yes, it is garbage. I used to have one that I got on some silly trade.

    Speakers not working

    I believe the only person you need thank is Stranglehold.. As PC eye was having you send it back to Dell and believing that your port "went bad".....and I assumed you'd already made sure it was plugged in properly..

    forgotten password cant log in anymore

    I'm not sure what's worse.. The idiot trying to take us as idiots...or the idiotic logic of some idiot trying to make us believe that a guy that uses his computer all the time SUDDENLY forgot his password. Some people are so damn stupid. They need to find a new hobby. Like. Now.

    Pentium D 965 EE

    Nope. The E6300 will beat it in just about everything. Get your money back and buy a C2D.

    Not sure what its called but need it.

    Definitely. It's jampacked full of goodies. It's been a godsend for me more than once.

    Not sure what its called but need it.

    Yuppers. Why do you think I bashed a certain no-brain for the Knoppix fanboyism? UBCD crucifies it. It's a must have for any geek. ;)

    Not sure what its called but need it.

    The disk you're looking for is called the "Ultimate Boot Disk" or "UBCD". If you don't have it, you're not a computer guru... :P

    Sound card with Amp?

    Yeah. A long time ago Creative had sound cards with amplifiers built in and a volume knob. I haven't seen anything like them in almost 15 years though.

    laptop possibly for sale

    I'll take it for $350 shipping included if you send it to Ontario, Canada. Shipping from here to Florida for a laptop costs $40 via courier, insurance included. (yes, I've done it... lol).

    New PC, need help/suggestions

    Not so sure I'd do the EVGA motherboard. Stick with more established brands like Asus and a couple of the Gigabytes. If it's gaming, I'd go the E8400 for the same price pretty much. More bang for your buck. I would go the Raptor 150 over the RaptorX 150. For one, it's cheaper. For another, you...

    really stupid question here.. can i have 2 cpu's?

    S771 is ONLY for Xeons. Xeons are the only current mainstream MP Intel processors. You can't just throw any old CPU with another one and hope to hell they work together. They have to be designed for it. I didn't expect PC eye to know anything about servers. The guy doesn't know anything about...

    Because when a Dell BIOS goes whack... It goes REALLY whack. I've worked on enough of them and could offer plenty of stories.
