    Another Quick 5 Minute Survey for UX Class: Help appreciated!

    Hi all, As part of my user experience class, we're doing a new study that's completely unrelated to tech. (Thanks for everyone who helped out with my last one!) This should take no more than 5 minutes and is completely anonymous. https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/homefix Thanks!!

    PSA: Say no to music theory

    I love music theory too. Did a software project for school once where I used music theory to automatically correct, accompany, and improvise on what people played on a MIDI controller. It's awesome stuff ... just wish I could do it for a living. Too bad nobody really needs this type of...

    Quick 5 Minute Survey for School Project - Help greatly appreciated!!

    Yeah, I bought some amplifier super cheap from an audio store once but it was a demo model that had been on demo for 5 years. One of the few used purchases I've made that actually had a defect ... some of the inputs weren't functional.

    Are SurveyMonkey surveys kosher here?

    EVGA Mobo FF Message, No boot!

    I'm having a bit of trouble getting my new rig working... The EVGA x58 Mobo shows "FF" which I assume means that everything should be working. However, when I boot, there is no video display, and neither my keyboard nor mouse lights up. I've tried reseating the RAM, gfx card, clearing...

    Do 30 inch monitors REQUIRE dual-link DVI?

    I have the NEC 3090WQXi. Will it work on only one DVI cable input on resolutions that are not native? I know I need dual-link to get the full resolution, but should I be seeing anything on the screen if I only have one DVI input plugged in?
