Sound problems. Would appreciate help!

Hi,
I've recently bought a KT3 Ultra2 6380E Mainboard and its GREAT!! I have one problem though, sound quality is poor and crackley...especially when playing DVDs and when the CD/Hard drive is being accessed. I'm using the supplied sound drivers and DVD player, but not the VIA drivers (they cause crashing resulting in total death of Windows!!) Any ideas whats causing the irritating crackling of the sound?
My PC Spec is:
Win98
Inno3D Tornado GeForce2 Mx/MX 400 64mb AGP Card.
Athlon XP 2200 CPU @ 1.8 Ghz
Onboard AC97 Sound
Maxtor 40GB HD1 (master, boot)
Other 10Gb HD2 (Slave)
CD-RW Drive 16x10x40x (Master)
DVD-ROM 12x (Slave)
Thanks

  • How can I set up multiple spaces (desktops) on my new MacBook Pro 10.9.5?  I have six set up on my other computer MacBook Pro 10.8.5 but can't find how to do it on this new one.  Would appreciate help on this.  Cheers.

    It's not completely obvious. What you have to do in Spaces is to position your cursor to the upper right of the screen, after which faint + (plus) sign appears in that area. Click that, upon which another Desktop will appear.
    The + may be difficult or impossible to see with some desktop backgrounds (black, for instance):

    Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
    First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
    Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
    Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
    I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
    You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
    Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

  • Newby would appreciate help with List Box

    HI all,
    In the process of designing a simple form that has a list box containing multiple salary designations.
    For each of those designations eg Accountant, Accounts Payable supervisor, I have specified an item value in the Binding tab which happens to be the salary of the position
    What I would like to happen is that when a selection is made in the list box i.e. operator selects say Accountant, the item value (in this case the salary) populates another field which is used later for costing calculations.
    Help unfortunately is not all that helpfull so would appreciate any assistance you might be able to provide and thanks in anticipation  

    For example to populate a NumericField1 on the form when the selection was made in ListBox1, you need to use some thing like this.
    Place the code in the Exit event of the ListBox. Language is JavaScript.
         NumericField1.rawValue = ListBox1.rawValue;
    rawValue will give the value that was assigned in the Binding tab.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Would appreciate help am having problems with iCal duplicate entries (100's!!) which I cannot clear?

    I have manually deleted and edited duplicates and originals of events and reminders etc many many times but have had no success and i mean hundreds of duplications!   Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

    Hi Margaret,
    iCal Dupe Deleter sees events with the same start time and title that are also in the same calendar as duplicates. If your events are in different calendars then it will not see them as duplicate.
    You do not say how you are syncing to your iPhone, but as it is an Outlook calendar you are syncing I expect it will be via iTunes.  If so, this is what I suggest you do.
    1. Turn off the Outlook syncing. You'll find the place to do this under Outlook's Preferences > General Preferences > Sync Services.
    2. Then sync your iPhone (if it is not via iTunes let me know).
    3. Open iCal and if there are any remnants of the Outlook calendars in iCal delete the calendars.
    4. Open Outlook and turn on Calendar syncing again.
    5. Open iTunes with your iPhone plugged in. Select the iPhone on the left and then select the Info section at the top. Scroll down to the  Calendars section and turn on syncing for the calendars. Then scroll down to the Advanced section and check to replace the calendar information on the iPhone next sync.
    6. Sync your iPhone.
    Let me know how this goes.
    I have heard of several people with Outlook syncing duplicates recently.
    Best wishes

  • Would appreciate help with applecare difficulties

    I have a 1ghz G4 14” ibook that was purchased in December of 2003 along with the extended applecare plan. Since then, I’ve sent it in, under warranty, 4 times for the same problem; this will be my fifth attempt to have the flickering lcd backlight repaired.
    This is obviously a problem and complete waste of my time, but what irritates me more is that the ibook has been returned, by applecare, every time with more problems and even damages.
    The ibook came back from the first “repair” with light scratches and deep gouges on the outer case plastics. The deep gouges are located on the underside of the ibook, where it looks like the computer was placed on a tool or improper work surface and then slide around. The case plastics are misaligned and poorly reassembled. The lcd backlight problem was unresolved.
    The second “repair” replaced the perfectly functioning combo drive for some unknown reason. Now the combo drive scratches discs, misreads discs, and sounds like my garbage disposal. The lcd backlight problem was unresolved. Beginning at this point is when adjusting the display angle can influence the backlight flickering.
    Applecare kept my ibook for almost 2 weeks on the third attempted repair. We had an apple genius observe and note the problem with the flickering lcd. Apple told us that the computer would now be fixed because a genius had witnessed and documented the problem. Applecare kept the computer in observation for 2 weeks and then sent it back, functioning improperly, because they couldn’t replicate the already documented problem.
    Upon delivery of the fourth “repair” attempt is when I was most disgusted; I found my ibook barely reassembled. It seemed that whoever had worked on my ibook was sick of having it pass through their hands repeatedly and believed that nothing was wrong with it. They decided that destroying my ibook would be a good deterrent against me sending it in again. Besides for the loose screws and open seams along the plastics, the backlight is stuck at about 50% brightness and the clicker/charging board randomly acknowledges mouse clicks and will not charge any of my batteries.
    It feels that powerbook repairs take precedence over ibook repairs, because I have had nothing but great service from applecare regarding my rev. a 12" pbg4.
    I guess I would just like to hear some suggestions about how to deal with this and have the ibook properly repaired. How do I email apple's customer service? My phone calls just lead all over to people I can't trace and "promises" that aren't documented.
    If you're still reading, I appreciate it. Thanks for your help.
    Louis

    You need to contact Apple Customer Relations. You can get to them (in the US) by dialing the AppleCare Support number, but pressing "0" instead of one of the other options to get to an operator. Ask them to connect you. Be prepared with the dates and case numbers for your previous repairs and the problems your iBook came back with. Be friendly, but firm, and request that this time your iBook is replaced rather than repaired. There's no guarantee they'll agree to it right away, but they may agree that the next time you should get a replacement.

  • ITunes Error- 3 months, would appreciate help

    hey guys and gals, i really need help. i've been trying to fix my iTunes software for months now. Without further ado, here's what happened:
    installed itunes
    deleted quicktime accidently
    installed quicktime
    installed itunes
    itunes still doesn't work
    installed and reinstalled multiple times from both the c.d. and itunes.com
    Therefore, when i attempt to open my itunes program, the dialoge box stating, "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Send error report, dont send."
    the details of the error report are:
    "information regarding the condition of iTunes when the problem occured; the operating system version and computer hardware in use; your digital product id, which could be used to identify your license; and internet protocol(ip) address of your computer.
    we do not intentionally collect your files, name, address, email address or any other form of personally identifiable information. however, the error report could contain coustomer- specific information such as data from open files. while this information could potentially be used to determine your idenity, if present, it will not be used. the data that we collected will only be used to fix the problem. if more information is available, we will tell you when you report the problem. this error report will be sent using a secure connection to a database with limited access and will not be used for marketing purposes."
    for the love of god, help me. i really wanna get my itunes working.
    i really appreciate it

    uhh, okay
    these wernt present in my add/remove programs list. but itunes was.
    "Uninstall iPod Updater
    5) In Add/Remove Programs, select iPod Updater. Click Change/Remove.
    6) A Confirm Uninstall window appears. Select OK to remove iPod Updater.
    7) Repeat for any and all iPod Updaters.
    Uninstall QuickTime
    8) In Add/Remove Programs, select QuickTime. Click Change/Remove.
    9) The QuickTime Uninstall window appears. Select the Uninstall Everything.
    10) The Uninstall Successful window appears. Select OK.
    11) Close all windows, restart the computer."
    also,
    12) Open My Computer. Open your hard drive. Open Program Files.
    13) Delete iPod, iTunes and QuickTime folders if present.
    it wont let me delete quicktime folder, but i deleted ipod and itunes folder with ease. and with that,i deleted quicktime AND itunes in "apple computer folder" i did this entire process several times, and the same message popped up. however, i think it's those missing componets that's screwing my itunes up. it gets really fustrating after awhile.
    thanks,

  • BlackBerry Curve 8330 Sound Problems...HELP!!!

    Okay I just got my BlackBerry Curve 8330 about 2-3 weeks ago and it's great. But yesterday I noticed that the notification tones for the sound profiles aren't working I've checked them to make sure it's not on mute or turned off, and they weren't. And when I went into the media thing and went to go listen to the ringtones, they wouldn't even play. I don't know what's wrong with it, I've tried looking at the help thing in my BlackBerry, but it doesn't help. Also I don't have internet on my BlackBerry so that can't be a cause. Can anyone please help me and tell me what's going on with my BlackBerry and help me fix it?

    Does it happen 3 times a day?
    I do a pull once a week just for maintenance. Like a PC you can have fragmented memory, temp files, open files from rouge apps, etc and doing a battery pull resets them.

  • Firefox crashes several minutes after opening every time I use it. I think Firefox was updated shortly before this started. Uninstalling and reinstalling have not helped. Updating all plug-ins has also had no effect. Would appreciate help fixing this.

    Browser starts out working normally but within a few minutes it freezes, stops responing and I have to close it using Task Manager. When I open Task Manager, it shows two Firefox programs running with different icons even though I only opened one window.

    iTunes saves out a new copy of the entire library file every time a change is made to the library. This is not new behavior.
    The slowdowns I have seen like this have ususally been caused by:
    A virus
    or
    Some anti-virus software is incorrectly interpreting the rewriting of the file and is causing a problem.
    Either way, you should definitely update your anti-virus software and definitions to the latest, and run a full scan of your system. If that does not help, you may want to recreate your iTunes library.

  • Beginner would appreciate help on DVD burning

    Hi all, I am very new to DVD Studio Pro and have managed to create my first menu with the help of the video tutorial. However, I am now up to burning my project and when i do so, the disc I burn only plays on a computer and not on any of my DVD players. Is anyone able to help me so I can work out how to burn a disc that is compatible to DVD players as well as computers? Thanks, i really appreciate your help. Caitie-rose

    Wellcome to the forum!
    First check if you authored a HD DVD. These discs will only play in your Mac player and NOT in regular DVD players.
    Besides that, you can read this: * DVD Authoring/burning tips thread *.
    But remember, you must create a SD DVD (standard definition) not HD DVD.
    Hope that helps !
