Need Driver Advice - Audig

hey all, i'm in need of some serious help with my card. i'm trying to install new drivers for my audigy 2 (i think the old ones are behind a problem i'm having with valve's source engine), the only thing is the setup for the latest drivers (from may 2005 i think) is telling me that i don't have an audigy 2 installed. now, i've already tried uninstalling my current drivers, and i've installed all the necessary updates (EAX, etc.) previous to this driver release. i began an install of the beta drivers from april 2005, and they are not giving me the same problem. so, before i go and install the betas and pray that it fixes my problem, does anyone have any suggestions on what can be done to install the latest driver set? thanks.

same problem here, im looking for a solution. in the mean time you may want to try manually updating drivers since when you run the installer it puts them in this folder:
C:\WINDOWS\Temp\CTZAPXX\Drivers\WDM

FCPX external hard drive advice needed

I have on order the following iMac which will be used for video editing with FCPX.
3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
16GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM-2X8GB (upping to 32mb when it arrives)
3TB Fusion Drive
NVIDIAGeFrc GTX 680MX 2G GDDR5
I'm coming from an older Mac Pro with internal hard drives, so I need some advice from the video editing experts on a quality external hard drive for the new iMac. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You've waited a long time...
Here's the deal: Thunderbolt has a bandwidth of 10Gb/s... TB2 a bandwidth of 20Gb/s. The G Raid uses 2 disk drives with 7200 RPM platters. These drives are the bottleneck and about the fastest transfers you can expect are in the 250MB/s range... I get that (and better) with a single SSD in a USB 3 enclosure. Three or more drives would get better transfer rates; you would need a larger enclosure.
You have to ask yourself: Do I want storage or do I want speed?
To make the best use of Thunderbolt speed, you can build your own RAID with an enclosure and buy the drives (matched) separately. A Thunderbolt enclosure with SSD drives will make the best use of the bandwidth provided by TB. You can find 4-bay enclosures and SSDs up to 960GB. You can expect transfer rates of over a gigabyte/second (I'm looking an an Akitio 4-bay enclosure with an advertised speed of 1375MB/s... [ customer reviews ] -- I am not affiliated with this product in any way... I think you'll get even more info here. )
Hope you find the info useful.

I need some advice...

Hi, I'm not quite sure where this topic should go exactly as it isn't about a specific topic. So plz fogive me if it's wrongly placed in your opinion.
Anyway, I've been a long time fan of Linux and I don't want to have to stop using it. I've just recently converted my whole computer to a linuxbox only system, as I was running winxp(uke) before and couldn't stand it. It would lag during simple tasks like going from one directory to another and for no apparent reason, which aided me in my conversion. Enough about winblows, I don't need to tell you guys why it sucks, we all have our reasons. But there is just one thing bothering me now... and that is gaming. I am a huge fan of gaming and have been doing so for quite some time now (years) and well... gaming on linux hasn't been too pleasant for obvious reasons.
1) the games I play except for quake3 are written and made to run solely on a winblows workstation.
2) Wine and Winex3 have limited, but growing support for a range of games.
3) Lastly the main game I would like to play (Steam CS 1.6) doesn't like to run on linux due to its constant updates, which throws WInex3 out of wack. Where it could have been working the day before but due to the update it no longer runs.
I'm thinking of just making a partition for winxp(uke) so that I can game, but this isn't something I'm totally willing to do.
Basically I need some advice and/or suggestions that anyone is willing to share with me.
Thank you in advance.
BTW: I'm not new to linux, I've been using it for almost 2 years now and have tried ALL of the distro's you can think of. (Arch is my distro of choice at the moment, along with slackware.)

Enemy Territory is an excellent game, and it is totally free.
I haven't played the free game from the US Army, but heard it is really good, and is totally free.
I bought Return to Castle Wolfenstein, which plays perfectly in Single player mode, but I have some trouble in multiplayer mode (and I'm not an expert either).
I bought Unreal Tournament 2004, which plays perfectly in both single player and online, but I simply suck at the game.
I bought Never Winter Nights because I know the company has a linux version you can download once you have a registered copy. I havent installed it yet, though, been playing UT2004.
Doom3 is supposedly going to have a linux installer on the CD's, like UT2004 does.
Anygame that uses OpenGL graphics instead of DirectX will prolly run under WINE or WINEX, or be easy for the original company to port (if they choose to).
There are some "up and coming" linux only OpenGL games, light flightgear (a flight simulator), and a couple of 'massive online games".
Betweet RTCW, EnemyT, Never Winter Nights, UT2004, and soon Doom3 - I have enough games to play, and thats without buying winex.
Fergettabout Windows! You simply don't need it anymore.
If you are determined to run Windows, get a removeable drive bay, and just swap boot drives when you want to swtich. Or use GRUB if you want to select from multiple OS's.
thx

Dell Live! Value Soundblater card!!!! Need some advice

I have an old 400 that has this card installed model #CT4780. I have purchased a new Dell E30 and want to install this card in it. I have downloaded the driver pack Li'veDrvUni-Pack(ENG).exe. This was listed on the website as the correct one for XP. I notice that in the old computer there is a cable from the card to the CD-Rom and also one from the card to the modem. Are these cables need in the new computer? Also will I have a conflict with the integrated sound card that came with the new computer? I have not done anything expect download the driver pack.
I know some about computers but do not like to install boards and new computers fearing some thing will go wrong. I need some advice and the procedure before I preceded. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Newer operating systems, computers, & audio cards do not require the use of the cable from the CD Rom to the soundcard. It is now handled via the IDE cable. Being that you only upgraded half of this equation (that being the computer and not the soundcard), this may be a "trial & error" situation. I do not have the experience with modem cards to comment on that one.
Finally, you will need to disable the onboard soundcard via the motherboard's Bios. Look in the MB's manual to perform this action.

You may be confusing the quad core CPU with the Graphics processor.
It should have no difficulty in running Adobe Photoshop.
Ciao.

In need of advice/help.

I am having some serious issues with my MacBook.
First, I think it is overheating. I can not run my computer for longer then an hour without it getting hot. My keyboard is getting hot along with my charger. I am not sure if this is a normal MacBook thing but it is slowing down my computer is so many ways.
Another thing is I cannot run more then one application at a time. I am a graphic design major and I need to be able to run Adobe CS2 programs. For example, Say I am running In-Design and I need to make a fix in Photoshop, In-Design will quit. I have tried so many things to fix this but nothing works.
I have alot of problems of running Safari also. I am very dissapointed and frustrated and I need some advice.
Please. I have been having issues for awhile and thought it was just how these computers run, but I think I was mistaken. This is my first Apple computer.
Thank you for reading and your input.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Stacey, I pointed you to an app called Temperature Monitor that will give an accurate temperature reading of your MacBook.
Never EVER use your MacBook on a pillow or a blanket that can block airflow. I have no doubt that is adding to the problem.
Download and install the firmware updates as well as Temperature Monitor found HERE. That way we can know what temps we are talking about. There is no way to tell if they are high if you cannot give us a reading.

Hai,
IDOC to JDBC (Staging table)
IDoc is pushed in to XI.
XI maps IDoc to staging table structure
XI does the look up of other database tables while mapping.
How to do the database look up???
XI inserts data in to staging table with the status new.
Scenario 2
JDBC to JDBC
XI selects the data from staging table.
XI maps the data from staging table to the Actual table.
XI inserts data in to the Actual Table and sends the status to SAP Processed successfully
If it fails in this mapping it needs to send the status as Error with the message to SAP
I want to do this as single scenario using BPM and I want to send status to SAP once the data is successfully loaded in to the actual table or it fails in mapping at any stage.

Business Delegate pattern - need some advice

Hi. First let me apologize for the long post. I could see no other way. I�m building a system that quite large and I need some advice. The system is a type of transaction system, let�s suppose a shopping cart. I�m using struts taglibs and tiles for presentation, struts proper for controller, and POJOs for business logic. Also I�m using OJB for my data tier.
Now I�ve been reading Pro Jakarta Struts (Apress), which BTW is a recommended read to anyone with novice experience in struts and related technologies. I�ve assimilated most of the techniques and patterns described in the book, and most of them make sense to me. However, I�ve hit a snag while reading the Business Delegate and Service Locator patterns.
The way I had though of building my application before reading the book, was to have a wrapper class, such as the following:
public class ShoppingCart {
private IAuthenticationService authenticationService;
private ITransactionService transactionService;
public ShoppingCart() {
     authenticationService = new DBAuthenticationService();
     authenticationService = new DBTransactionService();
public login(String username, String password) {
     String sessionToken = authenticationService.logon(username, password);
     return sessionToken;
private boolean isValidUser(sessionToken) {
     bolean validUser = authenticationService.isValidUser(sessionToken);
     return validUser;
public performTransaction(sessionToken, TransactionVO) {
     if (!isValidUser(sessionToken) {
          throw new AuthenticationException();
     transcationService.performTransaction(TransactionVO);
public editPreferences(sessionToken, PreferencesVO) {
     if (!isValidUser(sessionToken) {
          throw new AuthenticationException();
     authenticationService.performTransaction(PreferencesVO);
}My idea was that my wrapper class would isolate all the business logic and could perform login service in case my application was ever to be used with other presentation layer than struts (standalone client, web services). However I believe that this overlaps the Business Delegate pattern and maybe even totally implements it. The way I understand the code I�m reading in the book, they suggest having a BD for each major service such as AuthenticationServiceBD, TransactionServiceBD, etc� However this would break my single point of entry for authenticating users. I really need some advice on my design and how it fits with the BD and SL patterns (or others). I would also like to know what you think/recommend of my authentication strategy.
thanks in advance
Raphael

Thanks for your reply. This however, I understood. My concern is regarding my application in regards to business delegate pattern. You see I have this class (simplified for clarity):
public class ShoppingCart {
   private ILoginService ls = new DBLoginService();
   private ITransactionService ts = new DBTransService();
   // and so on for all services I offer.
   // then I mirror all the calls of my private interfaces
   // and pass them through internally
   public String sessionToken login(String username, String password) {
        ls.login(username, password);
   public boolean addToCart(sessionToken, itemNo) {
        // check session
        ts.addToCart(sessionToken, itemNo);
   // and so on
}Multiple questions for this one:
1) Am I not already implementing the Business Delegate pattern with my ShoppingCart class since all interfaces are private and all calls are mirrored from the wrapper class (ShoppingCart) to the private interfaces? All services are implemented as POJOs and I am not using JNDI at the present so I don't use the ServiceLocator pattern.
2) I store a reference to the wrapper class (ShoppingCart) in the ServletContext so I can grab it from my Action classes. What do you think of this approach?
3) How many BDs should an application contain. In my case I use just one. What is the advantage of using more?
4) I create my own session tokens in case I ever want to use to business code in a non-web applications where sessions are not available readily. This brings about the problem that I can't pass the interfaces directly to the Action classes because the login session needs to be checked before any calls to services. So all methods include a sessionToken parameter which I use to check the session. This way, if I want to expose some of the services through web services, I can still use a login. What do you think of this approach.
5) Any other remarks are very welcome...
I really need help with this from an experienced programmer. Most things I can handle on my own but with this type of design issue, books just don't cut it. I need experience. I would really apreciate some feedback.

ps: I would give all my Duke dollars for this (I only have 30), but I'm not sure how. If you want them I can create a dummy question and give them to you.

Need Network Advice: Multiple IP numbers.

Hello I need some advice on setting up my office's network. I have a small amount of network knowledge, mostly just setting up my home networks and our offices simple existing network. Right now we have Verizon internet. The network looks like this -
1 static IP -> Verizon Modem/Router -> 24port gig switch -> wired to 8 offices -> connected to 8 computers.
We are canceling Verizon and getting Comcast with 5 IP addresses. Our goal is to continue using a network like we have, but add a server on the side for clients and remote employees to drop files. We have 2 mac mini's ready for the task of being servers with OSX Tiger on them. I would like to set one or both of them up as FTP servers, so we can hand out login/pass info and people can ftp into them to drop stuff or pick stuff up.
Anyone have any advice for how to setup a network with multiple IP addresses? Do I need more than 1 router? Which router is best for Mac, because we will need a new one to replace verizons. Any advice on where I can find information on setting up the FTP server on our mac mini with Tiger? I've looked around, but I don't think the sites I found were using Tiger, menus weren't exact and I couldn't get it to work.
Thanks for the help!
Our office is ALL mac, 5x_8-core 2x_imac 2x_macpro 2x_mini

You don't need a "Gigabit router". It's way, way overkill (and $$$$$$) for your network.
The Comcast link is going to max out at about 15-20mpbs, so any router with 100mpbs links is going to be more than sufficient.
As it happens, I wouldn't get a router anyway. Comcast are going to provide you with a router (they need to in order to terminate the RG-58 cable connection they drop and provide an ethernet port (that ethernet port, BTW, will be 100base-T).
What you really need is a firewall. One that can handle multiple public IP addresses and allow specific incoming traffic (e.g. the FTP servers).
I would recommend something from NetScreen. You may be able to pick up one of their NetScreen 5GTs pretty cheap now they're end of life (I have several of these around my network, including one in the exact same configuration you're talking about here). Failing that the SSG-5 would be sufficient.
They also have the advantage of being able to run as a VPN endpoint should you need that functionality.
At the end of the day your network topology would look something like:
Comcast router -> (NetScreen) Firewall -> Switch -> Clients
All the clients will connect to the switch and can talk amongst themselves at gigabit speeds. Any internet traffic would pass from the switch to the firewall and out to the big bad world.

I need some advice about the macbook pro and iPhone 5.
I took a video on my iPhone and tried to email it it said it was too big to send? So i downloaded it to my macbook pro and tried to mail it to no avail? The macbook tells me the server won't let it through other mail goes through any ideas how to resize it or what it might take to send it?

I agree with LowLister, the best option for you to share the video online is to upload it to your online storage account for example : Box, Dropbox, SkyDrive (All of them provide free storage beginning from 2GB).
You can upload the files which you want to share in this online storage and then they have sharing options in which you'll will get the link of the file to be sent and send the email. You're good to go!
Tip : You can store multiple files for backup purposes.

Need your advice on making family videos without losing quality

I need your advice. I don't know where to put my question because I don't know which piece of software I need (so I am posting this in a few places on the forum: sorry). That is exactly the question, I guess.
I have a couple of digital cameras that I use to make family videos. They both produce .avi files. Sometimes I use an iPhone that produces .mov files. So after my children and grandchildren visit, I end up with a bunch of these little videos. I want to combine them into longer videos that I can watch more conveniently on my Apple TV 2 or put on a DVD to send my kids or to my elderly mother-in-law to watch. I know how to combine them using iMovie HD, but that process seems to radically degrade the resolution and/or image quality. The original .avi files are 1024x768 and are very clear and sharp. I can't watch these .avi files on my ATV2 so I've been using Quicktime Player 10.0 to open them and then save them as .mov files. Once I import these files into iTunes, I can watch them on my ATV2 and they too look great on my tv (since they have the same resolution as the original .avi files): sharp and clear. But after I use iMovie HD to combine them (the .avi files) into an .m4v file, they're down to 640x480, and don't look near as good. And the DVD made from this file using iDVD looks equally bad and blocky.
I think what I want to know is, can I change some parameters on iMovie HD to produce files that are as high quality as the original .avi and .mov files? Or if not, what software do I need to accomplish this? I'm not interested in "fancy" movies. These are just home movies, but they are important to us. Should I upgrade my iMovie to do this? Or get Quicktime Pro? Or what? I'd appreciate your advice. I'd like to keep the process as simple as possible.

This is my workflow. I'm sure you will get a variety of opinions, but all I can say for my AVI clips, I've had excellent results for viewing on AppleTV.
I use iMovie HD 6 for organizing the clips into short movies, 15 minutes +/-. Clips are imported into iMovie as DV files. Once the movies are completed, I Export from iMovie as Full Quality, which results in a my-movie.dv file.
I then open the dv file in MPEG Streamclip. There I use the MP4 and iTunes settings for screen ratio and bit rate. 4:3 for Standard Def and 16:9 for High Def. Sounds complicated, but once you open MPEG Streamclip, the settings are simple to figure out.
The main thing to remember about quality is not to upscale your video. If the resolution is 640x480 SD, do not export higher than 640x480.
Here are a couple of screenshots using MPEG Streamclips "Export to MP4" setting:
