I'm Thinking of buying a TV card for my PC. It is a modern gaming computer and is fairly well speced.I'm looking at either a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 TV Tuner Card or a KWorld PC150.Reading the system requirements they both say that you need a sound card to operate them. My question is why the sound card. Why Is on-board sound not adequate
i need to update my sound card drivers.... i am on windows 7 and went to the biostar website to update my on board audio drivers and there was nothing available for windows 7.... only vista,xp, etc.
I use windows 7 home premium, having real player download difficulty. The actual message: As a Restricted User you do not have adequate Windows operating system rights to use this program to install software.
I have a Compaq Presario CQ5210f with a M2N68-LA (Narra6) motherboard and I also have a old Compaq Presario SR1010NX with a MS-6577 (Giovani, Giovani2) mother board and it seems like the second mother board is better than the first. I would like to know which one is better because I have both computer towers but only use the CQ5210f.I am planning on putting in a new graphics card soon and I cant afford a whole new computer or motherboard right now so I have to pick between these to.

I just recently installed a new motherboard in my min hp home pc when i put my hard drive in its see a problem with configuration iam assuming it has something to do with the mac address on the new board the old board does not work thus why i replaced it is there any way i can save the information on my old drive if i reload windows 7 or iam i doomed because of windows 7 licencing to a mac address
When I go to boot windows, after my motherboard splash screen I get a black screen that says Grub Error 17 and am unable to boot windows. I thought this was kind of weird since I don't use Linux, but I ran SuperGrub Disk to see if it could find any problems. SGDisk gave me this "BOOTMGR is missing". So I tried following this . After pressing any key to confirm booting from a CD I once again got the Grub Error 17 and was unable to boot from the CD.
I have everything backed up, but I don't know what happened to my Windows 7 CD key and any keyfinder programs that I know of require you to run windows.
if anyone knows a way to fix my MBR only being able to boot a minimal amount of CD's, or if anyone knows how to find my Product Key without actually being able to boot windows, I would greatly appreciate the help. I have been able to boot into Ubuntu, and can access all the files on my hard drive if that makes any difference.
I am considering upgrading my laptop cpu, but I am not sure what CPU upgrades are compatible with my board, and when I try to look I draw a complete blank. [code]
Fresh W7rc 64 bit installation and network isn't installed any ideas, the problem is not getting a ip address? drivers are up to date as per board yet still into receiving a IP address?
I am having trouble with my new Fujitsu laptop. I have an onboard GPU (Intel(R) HD Graphics Family) and a non-onboard NVIDIA GeForce GT 525M GPU. I have Windows 7 Home Premium and the latest drivers for my NVIDIA video card. I also obviously have DirectX 11 installed, since I have Win7.Now, the problem is that although Windows detects both GPUs, it uses the Intel one (this was true both before installing the latest NVIDIA driver and before that).I know it's using the Intel one since: 1. If I go to Control Panel->Display->Change display settings->Advanced settings, the Properties window for the Intel GPU pops up; 2. If I go to Intel(R) Graphics and Media Control Panel, under Options and Support->Information Center, it says "Processor Graphics In Use:Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000"; and 3. Graphics quality/performance is way too low for the NVIDIA GPU.I tried disabling the Intel HD thing in Device Manager, but all that happened was that the screen went blank, so I restarted my computer, booted into Safe Mode (the screen wasn't blank there), re-enabled the Intel, and then restarted Windows into normal mode (and obviously I still had the problem with Windows not using the NVIDIA GPU.Also, if I go into NVIDIA Control Panel (click the system tray icon and click "Customize which programs use the GPU"), under "Manage 3D Settings", if I add a game to the list of "programs to customize" (in the Program Settings tab) and then click Apply, the game still behaves as if it was using the Intel on-board GPU (as in, nothing changes in terms of quality and/or performance, regardless of the graphics settings). Also, in the Program Settings tab, under "2. Select the preferred graphics processor for this program", the selected setting is "Use global setting (Auto-select: NVIDIA GPU)" and it doesn't allow me to change that (the drop-down list is greyed out).
Entered as usual Asus site to search for another publication..Down version of the Bios of the Mother Board.The problem is that the very large size have to update the bios does not explicitly understand what is wrong with this?Is it a mistake from the company?

as usual - I asked a question like 'remove Toshiba bulletin board" and every piece of useless piece of crap answer including here will talk about ANYTHING but answering the question
Replacing motherboard and CPU plus RAM will current Hard drive Win 7 64 bit boot the system? Two knowledgeable person said yes no problem using the now current C: with its operating system. One person ( computer store) said no as the BIOS chip will be different. I need to change motherboard and CPU (AMD 2.6 GHZ), also RAM to something faster because of a Birthday present.
I am trying to install windows 7 on my intel D945GNT board. I am doing the clean installation is gooing smooth upto the "completing installation" step. Once it reaches that step after that its refreshing first time. Then it is hanging there.
I am not able to figure out the problems from the previous threads. I don't have any ethernet connection to that PC and even there is no graphics card expect the on board card.
Previously I was using vista, but now I am not able to install vista also. If I install vista also in the same place the installation getting stuck.
Whatever this is has really messed up my computer! I can't play any DVDs or any video that uses Flash or Shockwave! I'm getting desperate, I have used Driver Genius Professional to no avail.Intel no longer offers any kind of support, I have tried downloading their general driver but every time it locks up and crashes, I assume for the same reason the Flash and Shockwave does.
