Complete novice needs answer to AWE64 qu

hello
i've just bought an old 90's programme of KOAN generati've music on a floppy. the programme plays the soundcard like a synthesiser but it was designed to be played with specific soundcards, namely Creative Labs AWE64 / AWE32 / SB32, or else it will sound completely wrong.
because these soundcards are obsolete, can anyone tell me what soundcard i should get (for a laptop pc) that will reproduce the sound exactly the same as the above soundcards?
sorry if this sounds like i haven't got a clue but the truth is, er, i haven't!
cheers

Hi ddossot
Saw your note about using a proper IDE unfortunately I am obliged to use the one provided by my UNI. Reason being the markers of my project may not be up to date with other IDE's. Though I may be allowed to use a newer version of JBuilder. I am waiting to hear if I have permission to do so.
Here's another thick question. from what I remember, when studying Java last year, it has a number of libraries that can be imported to a project. When I download the HTML and XML stuff are they just added to the libraries already in place and if so how is it done.
ps hope they also have tutorials with them for the coding :o(
One last question; am I in the right forum for this sort of query or is there a novice one for thicko's like me? :o)

  • Complete novice needs help

    Hi folks
    I hope you can indulge me. I am a mature student studying with the Open University in the UK. In order to complete my degree I have to produce a (small) project (doesn't have to have full functionality) based on a Network application. I am limited to using Java and to some extent the software provided for me, which in this case is JBuilder3.5 (yes I know it's old!). I can, within reason download further software providing my tutor is ok with it but here's the rub I have no idea what I actually need. There is so much to read through and I am feeling a bit thick because I cannot pin anything down.
    This is where I would appreciate any help from you experts. My project subject is a browser which can interpret web pages and then configure them to be displayed in a fromat that is prefered by the user not the author. I can build the GUI but I am stuck when it comes to building the functionality behind it. ie what packages do I need to download that can recognise XML/HTML tags in order to rearrange the display? Am I even on the right track? Is it actaully possible?
    Because the project is only worked over a small period I don't need full functionality but have elected to deal with input/output fields, text placemnt/display/font (infromationl), graphic placement/deletion. I may also be alowed to update my version of Jbuilder.
    I would be so grateful if somebody could at least point me in the right direction. I need to add here that I feel so stupid that I need replies in very plain english :o)

  • Complete Novice Needs Some Basic Help

    Hi!
    I'm sorry to clutter up the discussion with such basic questions, but what I want to do is get something from a cassette tape to my iPod. I'm told I can do this through GarageBand, and I have an audio cable that the guy in the Apple store said I would need. I'm not even sure where to plug this cable in. So any help in where I plug this in, or what I do next would be tremendously appreciated. If someone could even tell me where to look for help that would be great (when I look in GarageBand help its saying something about MIDIs and I don't even know what that is). Eternal gratitude for any help....

    Oh man, this is frustrating and I might give up soon!
    So in System Preferences, Sound I have 2 things,
    Internal Microphone (port is Built-in) and Line In
    (port is Audio line-in port). I can't seem to
    select one or the other, they're just there.
    Yeah, there is no "apply" or "OK" or anything like that. Just click on the Line-In so that it is highlighted and close the system preferences. That takes care of that. My PB G4 automatically detects when I plug in my line-in now that it is set up.
    Then in GB preferences, I only have the option of
    Built-in Audio, there is no other option.
    Built-In audio is correct in GB prefs.
    I also couldn't find where you were saying to
    double-click...what's the track header? I've clicked
    everything and can't find a monitor drop down menu
    option.
    The track header is the left-hand side of the track where there is a small speaker or instrument. For what you are doing, you need to create a new basic track. (Under "Track" in the menu bar, click "New Basic Track") You should have a new blue track that is labeled "No Effects." Double click on the speaker image and a dialog box will appear. Right in the middle of this box there are options for Input, Volume, and Monitor. You can turn on and off monitor abilities here.
    On the plus side, the connector I have seems to
    work...its male/male 1/8".
    Perfect.
    Thanks again and if you want to bail out, I
    completely understand!
    Hang in there. We were once all newbies to this digital recording stuff too.

  • Complete novice needs help getting SQL Query into Crystal Reports XI

    Post Author: MissMarnie
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    So I was given an intro level web course and a monster reference guide in prep to format a report. One of our developers wrote me everything I need for the report into a SQL Query and now I'm supposed to format it in CR XII literally do not know what to do from here. I'm able to set up the correct server as a datasource, if that's useful, but I don't know how to make the querey into a bunch of formattable fields in  CR. If anyone can walk me through this, I'd be so grateful. I've attempted to look up SQL query in both the help and the book but I keep hitting a wall. The help dialog says things like "press this button" with no reference to what "this button" is. I'm sure it's obvious to the knowledgeable but I'm in a complete fog. Thanks in advance

    IF you're trying to get assistance with setting up a query as the source for a report, try posting your Crystal version and the database type.
    Different software works differently.
    In CR 9 and above, under the connection to the database you'll see Add Command. Select that and you can paste the query in.
    As for not knowing how to generate a report, that requires experience, there's no generic solution of course..

  • Complete novice needs advice

    Hi, Im a guitarist (bit of an old rocker at heart) and would love to get started with GB ie; recording my guitar and voice etc. I have a Imac Power PC (2005) with GB2. Could anyone recommend a decent book to buy in order to get started. I am in my 50's and to be honest find the programme fascinating but extremely daunting! Is it worth buying ilife08 in order to upgrade?
    Thanks.

  • Complete Novice-Need to know how to replicate these effects

    Hey,
    I am currently making some instructional videos for work where we help disabled students with computer software. I write all the scripts, get the audio done and create the videos but used to get another guy to produce them and add the finishing touches. He no longer works for us and I desperatly need to get more done but can't figure out how.
    It is the transitions and effects on the video etc. that I can't figure out. I have attached a sample of what I am talking about. It is the transition from the logo to the video that I need to know as well as how to get the logo in the bottom of the screen and the title of the video coming up then fading out. More than happy to pay for this knowledge as I have loads of these to do.
    Please have a look at the sample and let me know if you can help me. Much appreciated.

    It looks like a 'zoom blur' transition,
    but from the looks of it, my guess is that it was done inside a motion graphics program... probably After Effects.
    There is no default transition like this premier pro but there are 3rd party plugins that may offer this transition (as well as many others...)
    http://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/extend.displayTab4.html#ABSoft
    The last transition listed on FxFactory Pro is a 'Zoom dissolve' which looks exactly what your after ...but unfortunately they are only compatible with after effects at the moment

  • Complete novice needs ftp help

    HI All,
    I'm a first time user of iWEB but reasonably confident with using macs for other things - particularly use imovie/photo/tunes.
    I tried searching the forum (I use it a lot and usually find answers) but couldnt find anything that goes right back to basics...
    Anyway, I have made a site using iWEB for my business and have a domain name and hosting space . I have downloaded Captain ftp but cant seem to get it to upload my site. I have host name, user name and password. I just opened Captain ftp and clicked on remote, quick connect. My domain name appears in one of the windows in red and the stripey blue and white bar at the bottom just kept moving and it said 'getting folders' but it never did (30 min later). the other window says my mac and shows hard drive icon under name
    Can anyone offer an idiots stepwise guide for me? I'm feeling a bit frustrated at the whole thing. I tried to get through to the host tech support but they didnt have anyone who could help me with mac/iweb problems.
    Thanks in anticipation
    Leanne

    Hi thanks for your input.
    the host is Smarty Host
    http://www.smartyhost.com.au/
    An Australian company
    I am able to access my domain control panel using the username and password they gave me so I presume they are correct.
    The specific instructions they sent me with the invoice and account details are as follows. I used the FTP instructions except there was no where in Captain ftp to add UPLOAD DIR info
    [2] PUBLISH YOUR WEBSITE TO OUR SERVER:
    Upload Using Microsoft Frontpage:

    I am a complete novice, and I have downloaded MacKeeper.   I need to uninstall it.   I have only checked my Mac speed on it and have done nothing else.   Is there a complete idiots guide.   I don't know if any files have been encrypted on it.

    Do not run MacKeeper again!  It's tantamount to maleware and does more harm than good.

  • A complete novice- still need help please!

    I am a complete novice, any help would be appreciated. I have written this short programme to display two buttons in a window on screen and with a little help from Lee i have incorporated the ColorButton subclass (see below for code).
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ButtonExample extends WindowAdapter{
    private Frame mainFrame;
    private Panel topPanel;
    private ColorButton buttonOne;
    private ColorButton buttonTwo;
    // constructor
    public ButtonExample(){
    mainFrame = new Frame("Button Test Example" );
    topPanel = new Panel();
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new ColorButton("I'm button two");
    mainFrame.setSize( 300, 75 );
    mainFrame.addWindowListener(this);
    topPanel.setLayout( new FlowLayout() );
    topPanel.add(buttonOne);
    topPanel.add( buttonTwo);
    mainFrame.add( topPanel );
    mainFrame.setVisible(true);
    // close the frame when clicks the close button
    public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
    System.exit(0);
    // Main program started
    public static void main( String args[] ){
    new ButtonExample();
    I am trying to familiarise myself with subclasses and want to create a subclass of java.awt.Button to override the background and foreground colours and have come up with this
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    public class ColorButton extends Button{
    public ColorButton(){
    super();
    setBackground (Color.red);
    setForeground (Color.yellow);
    On modifying the main programme to incorporate ColorButton it will not change the background color, only the Button color and will not display text in the buttons themselves, any suggestions would be appreciated

    If you use the constructor:
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");you have to write it:
    class ColorButton extends Button {
       public ColorButton(String text) {
          super(text);
    }

    The tools are not responding when I try to use them.  Some of them work sometimes, but not others and some don't work at all.  I'm in a design class online and I need these tools desperately.  I have an assignment due Monday and I'm losing the whole weekend because Tech Support is only open M-F!

    is this correct? If so how do i call this from within the main ButtonExample programme? As a complete novice i am just not sure how to do this, please help!

    Assuming that your main program works (I've not really looked at it), then, through the magic of inheritance, all you need to do to use your new and improved buttons is to change these lines:
    private Button buttonOne;
    private Button buttonTwo;
    buttonOne = new Button("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new Button("I'm button two");To read
    private ColorButton buttonOne;
    private ColorButton buttonTwo;
    buttonOne = new ColorButton("I'm button one");
    buttonTwo = new ColorButton("I'm button two");And all should be well
    Good luck

    If you were using Apple's BootCamp and received this message, quit it and open Disk Uility in your Applicaitons/Utilities folder.
    Select the Macintosh HD partition on the left and select Erase and Erase Free Space > Zero option and let it complete (important) this will check the spare space for bad sectors that can cause issues formatting partitions.
    Once it's completed, try creating a partiton again in BootCamp.
    If that doesn't work, then hold command option r keys down while connected to a fast internet connection, Internet Recovery should load (spinning globe) and then in that Disk Utility, select your entire internal drive and click > First Aid > Repair Disk and Permissions.
    reboot and attempt Bootcamp again.
    If you still get a error, it might be that you have OS X data on the bottom area where BootCamp partition needs to go. This would occur if you had the drive or computer for a long time or wrote a large amount of files to the drive and nearly filling it up and then reduced some, but it left traces in the area BootCamp needs to go.
    To fix this
