Yes I was plugging it into the front panel headphone and microphone jack.
I believe I used the HDA input not the AC'97. It might be flipped around sure but it works fine every time. Is it still possibly flipped around then? Do you think that caused the crash during heavy graphics loading?
Oh one more thing, the first time that was happening I plugged in my headset and the computer crashed. What do you think? It hasn't crashed since and I re-simulated the exact thing and it caused a brief lag instead of crashing the second time.
EDIT: By crash I mean total stall out. First the...
Recently noticed that when I was running a heavy graphics intensive mission of starcraft 2, I heard a medium speed ticking noise. I opened my case and put my ear next to the parts and it seems to be coming from the video card. Any ideas?
Hi, just though I would say that on my laptop, Avast 5 "became" disabled but Windows Security Essentials was able to deal with the trojan virus that was on it.
Right now I have Avast 5 on my desktop and kept Windows Security Essentials on my laptop.
What are your...
Well I have asus probe software that tells me the MB and CPU temp. How about if I just run a typical loading program for X hours and monitor temps near the end of the loading?
What program though? Would that process work?

Is this good?
EDIT: Or is this better?

I would like to monitor the temperatures under load. What is a good program to do this? How long should I run the program?
Someone said if the temperatures for the motherboard stay under 60 C, then the northbridge is okay.
Do you think this is completely necessary at this point? I don't want to poke around there unless I have to. I was even kind of worried applying my own thermal paste to the CPU heatsink.
Others have told me that those temperatures indicate it is fine.
Hi, I was building my computer over the weekend and am concerned that I may have damaged my motherboard.
After installing the CPU/heatsink and RAM, I guess I was kind of oblivious to the added weight and I picked the motherboard up by its big heatsink (northbridge heatsink I guess?). Upon...
Yeah I might get a joystick some time down the road for fighting games but for now I will have to settle for gamepad since it also allows me to play sports games and racing games a little bit more easily.
I don't have Xbox but I just checked up the price on ncix.com and it was $70!! :(
EDIT: $44 CAD on canadacomputers.com
Second EDIT: Do you still recommend it over the gamepad I posted earlier?
Hey guys. Looking for a decent gaming mouse ($50 or under) and a gamepad.
The gamepad will be for fighting games and sports (ie. SSF4, soccer games). The mouse will be for RTS and FPS mostly I guess. Nothing too fancy, it doesn't have to have 10 programmable buttons.
These are in stock in...
