Feeling like a total fool, now that I have solved for the most part Audigy LS probl
As the subject says, I feel like a total fool for having for the most part solved my problems with the Audigy LS. I have to say I'm sorry to Creative Labs for being so hot headed in my previous posts, as I got to thinking about it logically and decided to try a few more things before I gave up entirely.
Uninstalled the drivers/software and moved it to the last PCI slot on my motherboard, which hel
ps.
Didn't mess with Dolby Digital Decoding, which is off by default when the drivers are installed.
Set PCI Latency to 64 in the bios of my motherboard, which helps, for some reason the card doesn't like a PCI Latency of 32, beats me why it doesn't.
I do know the Audigy LS, will slow down to a crawl for processing soundif the PCI latency is set to 28, doesn't have a problem with a PCI Latency of either 64 or 96. Found this out on my system.
I can play games now, with minimal suttering. Ultimately, I came to the realization that the Audigy LS is for lack of better terminology a budget/low end soundcard and that it's time to upgrade, as it doesn't do hardware processing of EAX. Decided to update to an Audigy 2 within the next few weeks. I might get the Audigy 2 Value card if it is any good, as I already have firewire on my motherboard.
Here's my system specs, if it will help Creative Labs in trying to find a solution, though I do think a new set of drivers for the Audigy LS would help dramatically.
Intel 865PERLK motherboard
GB of PC3200 memory
3.06GHZ 533FSB Pentium 4
ATI Radeon X800 Pro
Highpoint Rocket 00 Ultra IDE card with 3 Western Digital harddri'ves attached.
Netgear FA3 network card for net connection
SB Audigy LS
LG 52X CDROM, LG 52X32X52X CDROM, LG 6X DVDROM
Almost forgot, the games that give me the most trouble for stuttering are C&C Generals and Lord Of The Rings: The Battle For Middle Earth.
I'm going to dig through each game's ini file, and search on the internet to see if there is anything that could help me. It's also a possibility that the stuttering could be a bug in ATI's Catalyst 5. drivers.

Since purchasing the Note 3 in October i have had nothing but issues. I went through all the steps and eventually I was sent a different phone, which was working for the most part until the recent upgrade. Now I am back to the old issues, no service, it actually says not moblie network available, when everyone else in my family has coverage and are on my plan with iphones. I am missing text messages and dropping calls left and right. This is unacceptable for the cost of this phone and my service. I have did a hard reset etc. What else can I do??
Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps. -

Anyone offer some help on tis please?
JohnUpdate ...
Just been on the Microsoft Answers forum and there someone has come up with the following fix to get mail working again using Outlook with iCloud ...
incoming: p99-imap.mail.me.com
outgoing: p99-smtp.mail.me.com
My Outlook now appears to work, but to be honest i am not sure what these new servers addresses are doing differently ... issue for me is that Microsoft and Apple went through beta testing and this item obviously was not thought important enough to fix not a good sign ....
thx

I am hoping that someone can help me understand how it can be so easy to lose the last 2 years data on an iphone by synching to itunes for the first time since 2012? If this happens from itunes automatically overwriting your phones system why would'nt there be warnings and red sirens going off on your phone? Can somone please let me know if this lost data is recoverable and maybe even let me know how to recover it?
Thank youGlad to help! The reply you got was very generic and didn't completely address your questions.
Basically, all it said was to restore your backup. What I addressed was your query about how and why this happened. iTunes did give you prompts and warnings. And if you'd used iTunes back in 2012, then you'd have lost much less data when you made the incorrect selection.
Do you have an iCloud backup? Were you backing up your device at all?
I just found it amusing that you were 'ticked off at Apple' when Apple didn't cause this problem. You did.
Have a great day! -

Now that I have set up the printer, how do I set up my smartphone?
Got the "eprint" email address and "HP code" that I got from HP.
NOW WHAT DO I DO TO SET UP MY SMARTPHONE?
It seems that these "forums" aren't much good for those of us whom aren't tech savvy. Some folks seem to treat me like a moron when it comes to computers, and I know that it's a very percise science, but I'd LOVE to watch ANY of those "naysayers" perform an emergency appendectomy. Then who would be scoffing at "the tech gurus" )call the APPLE store, even though it reconize you purchase them already, APPLE will charge you again. it happened to me. when u call them they can resend them to your phone FREE of charge. It makes no sense, i mean they know you already purchase them, then y dont they just allow us to redownload them free of charge.SMDH

I recently have downloaded a few new albums from iTunes. However, after I have listened to them, I realize there are some "blank spots" in the recordings... not sure why. Can I "re-download" the album/music again with paying again?
Thanks!The advice you provided me helped download songs from the album that failed to download the first time. However, there are songs that I originally downloaded that have blank spots in the song... How can I re-download songs that have already been downloaded so they are "clean" .. i.e. the play straight through without blank spots in them. Can I do this without re-paying?
Thank You -
Subject says it all.....The whole "open in preview" method is not working. Any ideas or solutions would be appreciated. Thanks
What kind of printer do you have? Have you looked at their PDEs to see if there are any settings for color/b&w?

I have a G5 which I intend to keep.
Now that I have updated my iphone 4s to iOS 7.0.
I cannot add music to my iphone or upload photos to iphoto.
I have the last itunes 10.6.3. which was supported by apple.
itunes will not interact with my iphone on any level.
Apple made all the equipment I use.
Bentley and Ferrari etc do not stop making parts for their cars?
The least Apple could is.
A. Update itunes to run on a G5
Regarding iOS 7.0 you have totally lost the plot.
We buy apple why?
Quality.
Intuitive interface.
Stable software.
Design.
All that Steve Jobs consider sacrosanct.
Quality is about ongoing support longevity of product.
Its not about trying to sell to every person on the planet, others are way ahead of you.
So try respective the customers you have, it wont be long before theirs a better operating system and your lead in hardware is marginal.

My post on facebook this morning.
If you have an iPhone or iPad do not update to ISO 7 unless you want an operating system that looks like windows 8. The graphics looks like it was designed by a artistically challenged mongoose and the operating system is not intuitive something apple users expect. Overly complicated ugly and generally change for the sake of apples paranoia since the death of Steve Jobs.You need to update iTunes to 11.1 on your PC
