    MP3 CD songs won't play

    Alright well my version of Nero wouldn't let me burn at 1x, only 16x. But that still seemed to work. It could also be the CD I would imagine. Now I just need to make another copy because for some reason this most recent burn is skipping. The CD-Rs are just old. But thanks! :)

    MP3 CD songs won't play

    Well I'll try it tomorrow morning before I leave for my hour drive, and will let you all know how it turns out. Thanks so far. I guess if it doesn't work I can just re-record the audio with some software.

    MP3 CD songs won't play

    Well its a 91 Plymouth Voyager, but the receiver is newer. It's a Kenwood KDC-MP425. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-0...m/Main.aspx?i=113MP425 I can try the 1x burn speed, but what does that do that burning at 40x doesn't?

    MP3 CD songs won't play

    Hello, I just made an MP3 CD yesterday, and I used a program called MP3 Splitter and Joiner to chop up a set-list of trance (120 mins long) into more track oriented pieces. For some reason though, when I tried the MP3 CD in my car yesterday, those certain tracks wouldn't play, and I received...

    Building new comp - Suggestions?

    Alright maybe I'll go with the 450 watt from buy.com. I wasn't sure on my wattage needs. Checked a wattage calculator and I guess it was right. Are you sure 2.0 is worthless? It's compatible in 1.X motherboards and if ever I upgrade my motherboard I'd have that extra use when it becomes fully...

    Building new comp - Suggestions?

    Well I was going with the EVGA for quality and the warranty. That's $160 after rebates. Plus its PCIe 2.0 And yeah I know those aren't great PSU's. I guess this Corsair 550w PSU would be better: http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16817139004 buy.com has some crappy reviews, so...

    AMD 4800+ x2 Vs Q6600 (or similar)

    Yes I've read that in many cases a video card upgrade would give the most increase in performance for gaming, even though that's not the best of processors. My upgrade from a GeForce 5200 to an ATI 9600xt was phenomenal, but that was years ago. (still using it)

    Help! Line-in from my computer is no longer work after formatting.

    I've had an experience where I reformatted to SP2 and my ethernet wouldn't work. Luckily I had a PCI ethernet card laying around. Found out something went weird when I installed the mobo drivers from the CD. But I went to the manufacturer's website and downloaded the updated drivers. I don't...

    Mixing Ram / Compatible?

    I personally don't think it's bad. Not much experience though. I have an old comp with a 512mbx2 corsair dual channel and a 256mb corsair with no problems at all. Do you need 6gb? The 2gbx2 might be enough for you? I'm about to buy that ram in a new computer too. :)

    Building new comp - Suggestions?

    Hello all, I'm looking to build a new computer (mine is worth a door stop). I'm somewhat limited on budget, so I'm looking for all the good deals on Newegg - discounts/combos/etc. I believe I've found a PSU that would fit with my case that I've selected. Case - Antec...
