    Scanner question

    I have a Microtek Scanmaker 4800 scanner that does a good job. However, the glass appears to need cleaning on the inside of the scanner, if that makes any sense. I have dust and what appears to be almost a fog on the inside of the glass. My question is, can I remove the glass and clean it...

    CD Player doesn't recognize music cds

    Actually, I am using the on-board sound since my pci soundcard was having some troubles. I made that switch prior to the os upgrade and I could listen to the cds using the headphone jack on the drive. I'm at work right now, so I will take a look this evening to see where the connection is...

    CD Player doesn't recognize music cds

    I recently upgraded from 98SE to XP Pro. My burner works fine, except that when I try to listen to any music cd using the CD Player included with Windows, I get a message that the cd is a data cd and not a music cd. I can listen to the cd using Windows Media Player or Winamp, so the drive is...

    Phantom PCI card

    I have tried to get it to accept my soundcard drivers, but nothing seems to be what it is looking for. I did what The Corm suggested and let it load without a driver and disabled it. That has taken care of the problem for now. I have not thought about re-installing Windows, but I have been...

    Phantom PCI card

    Thanks, man. It is one of those frustrating things that just seem to happen. I have been happy with my K7S5A. This is the first problem I have had with it, if it is indeed a problem with the motherboard. I appreciate your help. Tim

    Phantom PCI card

    I disconnected the sound card and started the computer. I get the same result "PCI Card Found". I have no PCI devices installed.
