    Why don't I get audio for just this one game?

    Hmm, it's not just music though, it's everything including sound effects from clicking buttons and such. And what's more weird is it cuts the audio for everything else on my PC while the game is running. So if I had background music playing, which I often do when playing games, it cuts that out...

    Why don't I get audio for just this one game?

    I had a craving for some sea trading so I re installed Patrician IV from Steam and fired it up and right when the Kalypso intro video starts I hear a click in my headphones and suddenly all audio is cut off. It doesn't come back until after I exit the game. So if I had some music playing on...

    Computer freezing randomly

    I have an older machine which I recently reinstalled OS to Windows 8.1 and it seems like since then it is having situations where the whole machine just randomly freezes, and there is nothing I can do except hard shut down with the button on the case. It has so far only happened while I play...

    Not hearing sound from my Windows 7 pc

    I found some regular analog audio buds, and they are not getting any sounds either. Tried plugging into each of the jacks on the back of sound card as I always forget which one outputs to headphones. None work. The playback device was set to the Speakers // Creative SB X-Fi

    windows 7 admin question

    So I used to have windows XP on my server and it was so easy accessing its hard drives from my other machines - I'd open up file explorer, type in \\server\j$ for one of them for example and if this was the first time I ever did it I have to enter credentials, check to save and that's it. I...

    Maybe the other team should have forfeited. Everyone would be happier if the winning team just stopped playing? Maybe they should just sit down on the court and watch the opponents get a few free shots to even the score?

    Evolve Big Alpha Weekend

    I just played for the first time as a hunter and lost. It gave me the trapper class and was following the dog around the map and it took quite a while before it reached the monster who was already eating well I guess, but the first encounter was too early for him as he kept trying to get away...
