    Why are DVDs so quiet when played on the computer?

    Is this the same for all DVD's or did you just test w/ one? I remember having this problem before, I think I installed a sound card, and then dowloading windows media classic. I forgot which one of those did the trick. You could also try VLC Player as well.

    Suggestions for building a new PC

    Shutting down issue

    Its not really what I would call a problem. Its actually your Enermax PSU. They have a tendency to run for a little bit after the computer shuts off. The computer is off, but the fans will run for a minute or so, and then shut off. Its a good feature that cools down your system after usage...

    Please help, Motherboard/cpU problem.

    Hi, I'm new to the forum and this is my first post. :D Anyway, I was hoping for some opinions from others more knowledgable than myself could give me a few ideas as to what to do with a problem I've been having. So, I recently put together a system, here's the specs: MB: Gigabyte...
