A month ago my laptop crashed , and I brought it to the store, and now they fixed it but 2 weeks ago I noticed there's no sound anymore When I play my song, I click on the sound icon, and it shows there is sound, ( my speakers are default)but I can't hear a thing! I also checked if something was on mute. Nothing is muted I also plugged in external speakers and a headphone, and I still couldn't hear sound. my operating system is vista premium.
View 5 RepliesThis worked for me before but I messed it up. I used to be able to record the sound coming from my computer and play it to my microphone right away as it goes. Meaning when I record something, it would record whatever is playing on the computer. But I forgot how to make that setting.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just upgraded to Vista U x64 and am having sound problems. I have a prelude x-fi sound card but the sound coming out of it is extremely low. I have maxed out every thing I can max (control panel sound, creative panel) and the sound level is whisper quiet. I have also upgraded all my drivers except the prelude's, I would but their website isn't offering those drivers at the moment. But the drivers supplied with the card are vista certified so I should get something. But my mobo, etc is all updated. I have been searching for a solution for two days to no avail.

Being my first time for pc games, I'm not sure if my laptop has got enough to play those games. I heard that it depends on my video card(?)or my graphic card(?), and I have no idea where and how to look that infos up. I have 65.3 GB left on C: , and 9.35 GB left on my D: drive.

View 7 Replies View Relatedhere is a summary of the posts this poor guy had to go through to try and get his dvd working. imagine having to type cryptic commands into a terminal window. no wonder why ubuntu is so screwed up. ubuntu will never take over the desktop. ubuntu is prehistoric. here is the summary of the posts: i cannot get my dvd to play cds or dvds. a summary:
1. i have hardy running as a virtual file on a xp host.
2. cds and dvds play ok in windows although they do not autorun, i have to start them using the player,
3. i had the same fault with gutsy
4. i followed reassuringlyoffensive's guides and everything seemed to load without errors.
5. i tried gxine first. when i run the dvd i get a message "xine engine fails to start" then "read error from /dev/dvd"
6. i get sound when i log on and i am able to play videos, with sound,from Internet.
7. i installed hardy from a download, i was able to check for errors.

I'm just about to have a substantial upgrade to my rig-new mobo+new case. All my other components will be transplanted.I've become aware of the LG GGC-H20L. This will apparently allow me to watch Blu Ray movies (and HD-DVD if I can find any) and is also a good DVD and CD writer. Also I can get it for just £66.So I was thinking of swapping out my existing Samsung DVD/CD writer for this unit but have several compatibility concerns.
I have a BFG 8800 GTS OC 512MB GPU. This card has a 2 DVI outputs but no HDMI output.I also have A Dell Ultrasharp 2408WFP monitor which has loads of inputs including, I believe, an HDCP compliant HDMI input.So. Does anyone know whether I'll be able to watch Blu Ray movies on my PC using the LG unit through my GPU and into my monitor? I could get an adapter cable or maybe DVI would do? It would be great if anyone has this thing and could tell me if it's any good. I could keep my current DVD writer as there's plenty of room in the Cosmos S I'm getting but if the LG writes CDs and DVDs well I might as well pass it on to somebody who needs it.
I'm a complete novice to computers. I've recently bought a new computer but can't seem to play CD's on it. The computer doesn't seem to be reading the drive. I've even tried playing the software and documentation disc that came with the printer and its not recognising that either.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWow requires hardware slightly more advanced than a graphing calculator to run, how am i not able to play with a system like this. The only thing i can think of is that maybe the different types of RAM are causing problems, maybe the timings are off or something. This is exactly double the spec of my XP machine and on that machine WoW flies. I dont get it. While not in the game the PC is lightning fast. Anyone have similar issues with WoW in Vista, if so how'd you fix it?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've come upon a problem and I dread calling MS support. I have found nothing useful (without paying a subscription) on the net. I have Vista U x64 and a Hauppage WinTV1600. Everything was working fine for a couple months, but now I cannot play Live TV as I get this error. "Cannot Play Video: The file is currently in use by another application and cannot be played. Please try again later." Well, later is now over a week. I can still record tv and all other functions, no other issues at all.
I can't exactly pin down when it started due to a 2 week period of not watching live tv or what software (if any) could have caused it. I also tried the maintanence feature of MCE, but did not correct it. Does anyone have any thoughts or experience to this issue? I'm not sure what "file" or "application" could be doing this. I do have Nero 7 Essentials installed and uninstalled Cyberlink DVD in case, but I'm just swatting flies with these thoughts.
