    Question about suround sound speakers and nforce2

    For testing, I'm using the nforce control panel. When I try the test sounds, I hear the right, center, left, but when it comes to left and right rear, they basically sound like center speaker. And it's not music so much as DVDs and games. I was hoping to hear those Doom 3 monsters sneak up...

    Question about suround sound speakers and nforce2

    Hi folks. I got a SN41G2 shuttlex with the nforce 2 chipset for sound (built in, no soundcard). I just got a new set of Dell 5950 5.1 suround sound speakers. The speakers work great, but I think I'm not getting real 5.1 sound coming out of this box. It sounds like I'm getting left and right in...

    Newbie usb motherboard connection question...

    No, there are, but those are built into the motherboard, with no headers that I can see. My problem is that the two USB headers NOT used by those in the back are being used by the case for the USB input in the front, so I have no headers left in the mobo. How can I install this internal 7 in 1...

    Newbie usb motherboard connection question...

    Ok, on the motherboard there are two USB connections. Both of them are taken up by the front USB connections on the case. I want to install an internal 7 in 1 card reader that requires me to inset it into one of the USB motherboard connections. So, do I loose one of the front pannel connections...

    Changing some stuff...what do you think?

    My box is working just fine right now, but I think it's time to update a few things: Will change 512 PC2100 memory for 1GB PC3200 memory. Will change CPU from AMD Athlon XP 2000+ to probably Mobile Barton 2600 (but this I haven't decided yet). Will change video card from GeFoce 4ti 4200 to...

    Newbie CPU question....

    I'm a proud owner of a FIC AU13 motherboard that I got in Frys a while back. It's got a AMD Athlon XP 2000+ CPU right now, running at 1.7GHz. The system is running fine, but I'm doing a lot of movie editing lately and it takes quite a while for the rendering to be done. So, I decided to upgrade...
