I finally am ready to start recording LP's again. It worked great with my old XP machine. Now I have no input level when I open my Nero wave editor. I don't know where to find an adjustment for audio line in within Vista.

I am trying to adjust my mixer to accomodate my new speakers, the voice is too low, and the base is too high. I have accessed the mixer and tried to make it tollerable, but have failed. There is no direct bass and treble adjustment, and there is not a "user" or "custom" setting. There are only presets, the problems with these presets, is that they work in certain situations, but not in others. Any advise? Am I looking in the worng place? Can I put software in place to adjust the levels indepent of each other? I am using the onboard sound card on an Abit IP35 Pro, and I am using Home Premium 64.

I go into adjust screen resolution and it wont let me adjust anything, the slide bar, in advanced, and under settings. I can't change anything even trying to load the software for the monitor fails?
View 6 Replies View RelatedThe Windows Experience Index was 2.0, held down because of "memory operations per second." So I just added two 1 GB memory modules. Now the score for Memory is 4.6 (yay!). But the score for "Graphics" is still 2.4. I went to "adjust visual effects" and clicked "adjust for best performance." And so my screen looks ifferent now--I gather this is "Classic Windows," as opposed to "Aero." But the score is still the same: 2.4! What do I have to do to make it go higher?

The fololowing policy might need to be adjusted to allow Windows to connect:

The strange thing is that AOL easily connecting to the web, and neither IE nor Firefox can NOT.
I recently reinstalled Vista home premium. Now the colors on my monitor (acer al2216w)appear washed out. I downloaded the drivers for my onboard video and still it appears washed out. Could something else affect the color?

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy Windows Vista isn't letting me adjust my power settings. Here is what the problem:
1. I click the battery icon in the bottom right of the start bar. Then I lick "More Power Options"
2. On the left panel of Power Options window, I click "Choose when to turn off the display" My computer tells me "Your power plan information isn't available" with a red X next to it. The same thing happens when I try to adjust any other power setting as well.
3. I click on the "Why can't Windows retrieve this information?" and it says stuff about my system administrator making changes, and that doesn't apply to me. I am the only user of the computer and my account is the administrator. I've never tinkered with any of these files to my memory................
Taskbar thumbnail preview in Windows Vista is a great new feature that allows you to quickly see a window without having to fully open it from the taskbar. Instead, you can just hover your mouse over the taskbar item and a small preview window will be displayed.
I have been asked many times if it is possible customize the size of the preview thumbnails. Many have expressed the desire to have larger previews so they can better see the window. Finally, I have found a way....
Need a software that will allow me to extract audio segments from a Dvd. I'm very new to CD/DVD RW so hopefully it won't be too complicated for me.

Im trying to help a friend fix their sound on their HP Compaq Presario F500 (2EA)Laptop. They have the annoying red cross over the audio icon on the bottom right hand corner of the screen (No Volume Mixer).
I have tried numerous things like:-
- Completely uninstalled the (Conexant High Definition) drivers in device manager, restarted and let Vista install them again.
- Downloaded latest drivers from RealTek,, and also HP
- Unfortunately their are no system restore points before the problem happened.
I have a sneaking suspision that either Windows Update installed something that is clashing with this problem or I herd that Itunes may have somethign to do with it (Which was installed near the time).
is there any possible way to create a custom shortcut for the "adjust visual effect" under the performance information and tools in control panel?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to get my Line-in to play through my desktops speakers! They are currently muted and my speaker properties currently don't have an un-mute option (common Vista bug...was so easy on XP). I plugged a stereo jack from my xbox360 into the back of my new desktop with windows VISTA. Windows vista is able to detect sound coming in, but does not play it through my speakers.
So far ive:
-tested the stereo jack in my laptop, with windows XP and it worked perfectly.
-doulbed checked to make sure everything is unmuted.
-used windows vista sound recorder to record input sound...i was able to play it after.......

View 9 Replies View RelatedI recently exported all my mail from Windows mail, re-installed Windows, then imported my mail back in again, along with my account info and contacts. Everything has seemed fine, however approximately one in every 20-50 emails has a strange problem. The subject line will show a subject and sender, however the content pane will show a comletely different email, an email from a different sender and on a diferent date.
1. I might receive an email with a certain sender and subject on the 2nd of Oct 2009.
2. Click on the subject and see different email content from a different sender in the content pane.
3. Check the email headers with the subject selected (Ctrl+F3) and see the headers show it is from the person in the content pane and was sent on the 1st of Oct 2009.

Under OE, my top line on a hardcopy was showing my name.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIf I connect my Vista laptop to a power outlet in public, such as an airport terminal, library, or coffee shop, how viable is the threat from someone gaining access to my computer via a power-line network? If the threat is viable today, what is the best method of stopping it?
I know many people will say this is too unlikely and that other security threats are of much more concern to the average computer user, but with the increasing sophistication of ripoff artists either trying to steal your identity or pilfer your financial data I wouldn't assume the threat is not viable and not likely to increase in the future. After all, the federal government and the defense industry utilize TEMPEST, outlining the need for classified "Red Power" systems to protect computers from power-line monitoring and Van Eyck monitoring as well, versus "Black Power" systems that are connected to the public grid. In fact, not too long ago the French were caught conducting industrial espionage by tapping into a local power grid and accessing information via power lines.
When I enter the first letters of an email recipient's name, a selection of possible recipients appears in a box beneath the To: line. I appreciate this feature, but I would like to eliminate one of these alternative recipients, which is not even in my contacts list. How do I eliminate this unwanted recipient's address? Perhaps this box that ppears is simply a history of sent/received emails beginning with that particular letter -- if so, how do I edit this history?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a question about my laptop which I was hoping someone can solve for me please? I have a 3" (approx) black line running down the right hand side of my screen and a 1" (approx) black line running across the bottom of my screen and am not sure what this means!? It's not dead pixels as I can see everything as normal (e.g the clock in the right hand corner) but it just looks like someone has comressed the screen into a smaller space and I cannot move the mouse into these black areas.
It is also the same when I go to the BIOS. Not sure if this is a regular problem with Acers (mine's an Aspire 3690) but I cannot find anything on the internet about it? I restored the system to factory settings but was still the same. Sometimes goes back to a full screen (however hasn't done it for a while though) and I have linked it to a monitor and the screen is full and does not have any black lines.
I use a program called "Texmod" for a number of games to modify their textures. One game I am recently playing, however, requires that a command line switch be used to run the game client exe directly. Texmod doesn't support command line switching through it's own, so the game client refuses to work. Is there anyway (via Windows options or a third-party application) I can embed/hardcode the command line switch into the exe permanatly, so if the exe is ran, it'll always force load the command line switch?

what, exactly, should go in each line. I would also like to add lines of information to BGInfo - but that question will come after I get the above working.
