    No audio on flash-based video sites

    Noticed this just yesterday, the video will play fine on every site I visit, but sound is absent and no amount of messing with audio settings seems to fix it. The situation is the same with both Firefox and IE, though my system audio is fine. I reinstalled the Adobe flash player and checked...

    Disk boot failure?

    Well this just got interesting... I went into BIOS but couldn't find any settings for mixed devices so I exited and just for laughs, put in the Win7 disk again. And the damn thing booted up! It got as far as a Win7 splash screen for what I believe is the installation, but just hung there...

    Disk boot failure?

    A mix. The HDD is SATA and the Dvd drive is IDE.

    Disk boot failure?

    I was just using CD drive as a colloquial term. It's the only disk drive installed and is a dvd burner itself. My boot order is set up with the disk drive as the primary, HDD as secondary and removable as tertiary. I wasn't sure if I burned the Win7 disk incorrectly but the system should...

    Disk boot failure?

    I had a Seagate Barracuda in my primary computer die on me a few months back, sent away for a replacement and got it back awhile ago but only decided to install it now. Thing is, when I turn on the machine , it goes through POST and then just displays the message "Disk Boot Failure. Insert...

    Laptop back from the dead...

    I have a Sony Vaio VGN-T150 and it worked perfectly for 2 years until last year when it just refused to power on. I didn't have the money to take it to a repair place so I let it sit in my closet until now. On a whim I took it out, plugged it in and to my amazement it powered on! But after a...

    Problem with X1950XT?

    I tried that version but I didn't see a temperature monitor. I tried an older version as well and it was the same for that. It seems that the temperature graph should be appearing where the big Atitool logo is, but for some reason it isn't happening. As an update, I can confirm that there are...

    Problem with X1950XT?

    This is all I see I ran the artifact scanning, at first it went to about 1 minute, showed errors and reset. Then it went to 3 and reset, and now its going past 7 and there haven't been any errors. Does this have any significance?

    Problem with X1950XT?

    With Atitool, how do I determine whether the temperature is too high? I tried to find my max core, but after about 1 minute, it started showing artifacts on the little test box. Immediately after I scanned for artifacts and after a few milliseconds my graphics accelerator locked up.

    Problem with X1950XT?

    I just upgraded from an X800XT to a 512mb 1950XT and when I run certain games, small black or white squares dance around my screen. I've tried graphics settings from low to high but nothing gets rid of them. I thought it might be an issue with the card, but I was able to run World in...
