What is this and what updates would I use?

Hi all,
Just bought a Gateway system based on the Intel i7 - 920 chipset, ATI HD49850 video and many other things...
The audio that comes with it is very confusing.
In the systray there are TWO audio panels. The first is for the Realtek HD audio. The second is for something called the Creative X-Fi MD audio.
In the system manager it shows two audio hardware entries, Realtek and ATI (from the video card).
It does not show anything for Creative. Yet, the creative control panel handles all the excellent audio controls and effects for the machine and without it, I do not get access to any of the high end sound.
So what is this? Is the hardware Realtek or Creative and why or what is the difference here between the two? Based on the ports on the back, this appears to be built into the mainboard and since I have not opened the machine yet I cannot tell much about the hardware layout.
The questions come about because this machine has built in hot swappable hard dri've bays for E-SATA and SATA. Awesome feature!
And while working on making sure all drivers were current, I wanted to update all audio as well but I have no idea what I should be looking for now in terms of drivers. Checking the Creative drivers area shows no entries for the X-Fi MD whatever that is. Thus the only drivers I currenly have are the ones that came with the machine, which when installed again do so via the full Creative installer. It fully supports and installs Alchemy and all other tools.
So if you are confused by all this, join the club... Anyone know anything about this?
BTW, this machine is fast and loaded with features.. I recommend it big time.

    How does one add a percentage to a number? If I have 100 and I want to add 15% and get a total, what formula would I use?

    You can do something like this:
    D2=B2*(1+C2/100)
    this means in the cell D2 type the following "=B2*(1+C2/100)"... leave out the double quotes

    There are several options for making images (or any object) shake:

    You can apply these to the X&Y together, or 1 instance to each channel.

  • What function would you use instead of "IF" when referencing durations from a pop-up menu. Ie; if c4 equals 1h enter 280, if c4 equals 30m enter 160, etc. IF works fine if c4 is formatted as text but returns 0 when formatted as pop-up.

    What function similar to IF would one use when the reference cell is a pop-up menu of items in duration format?
    Example: if C4 equals 1h enter 280, if C4 equals 30m enter 160, etc
    i can get it to work fine if I format the cell to text but I not only need it pop-up, I also need it to be written in duration format because it's used as duration in other functions.
    thank you for your help in advance
    Christina

    Hi Christina,
    A screenshot is always helpful.
    C4 is your popup? You want to chose a duration there and have 280 or 160 show up somewhere else? Are they the results of a mathmatical formula or do you want a lookup table to show them?
    I suspect something else is going on in your table. I have no trouble having a popup recognized as a duration:
    The formula in C2  =DUR2MINUTES(B2) displaying "60" as expected. Note that "60" is not a duration. If I want C2 to be a duration I need the formula to read:
    =DUR2MINUTES(B2)&"m".
    I hope this helps, if not, post a screenshot including relevant formulas.

  • What equation would I use...

    I appreciate the help on this question.  I am an attorney I would like to develop a spreadsheap in Numbers (and Pages) that does the following simple thing:
    Column B would have a retainer figure.  Say $1000 for the first entry.
    Column C would have my total running for the month.  At the first entry that would be $1000.
    Column B, row 2, would have 1500 for my next retainer.  Column C, row 2, using an equation would have the new figure of $2500.  Also, Column C row 1 would retain the previous total of 1000.
    Column B, row 3, would have 500 for my next potential retainer.  Column C row 3 would automatically, using an equation, would have the figure of $3000.  The previous rows in column C would retain the previous totals.
    What equation or formula would I use to populate column C with a running total?

    =SUM($B$1:$B1)
    Put that in C1 and then copy it down the column.  C2 should have the exact same formula except the last B1 is now B2, and likewise down the table.  You're telling it to start at B1 for each entry, but to stop at the row in B that is identical to that row in C.

  • What script would I use for a timesheet using 12:00 am?

    I have been able to add a document level script using Acrobat Pro to show midnight as 12:00 am. But my calculations still don't work. As I have it scripted right now a start time of 12:00 am and an end time of 1:00 am equals -11.00 hours not 1.00 hour. What script would I have to add so the calculation is correct?
    Here is the script I have right now:
    // start time
    // Start time field name
    var cStartName = "start1mon1";
    // Start time format:
    var cStartFormat = "HH:MM";
    // end time
    // end time field name
    var cEndName = "end1mon1";
    // End time format:
    var cEndFormat = "HH:MM";
    // some conversion functions
    // function to convert time string to minutes
    function Time2Num(cTime, cFormat) {
    // convert time string to minutes
    // convert time string to date object
    var oDate = util.scand("mm/dd/yyyy " + cFormat, "01/01/1970 " + cTime);
    // convert date object to number of milliseconds
    var nTime = oDate.getTime();
    // convert milliseconds to minutes and return value
    return Math.round(nTime / (1000 * 60));
    } // end Time2Num function
    function Num2Time(nMinutes) {
    // convert time string to Hours and Minute
    // hours in nMinues
    var nHrs = Math.floor(nMinutes / 60);
    // remainder minutes from hours in nMinutes
    var nMins = nMinutes / 60;
    // return formatted time string
    return nHrs, nMins;
    } // end Num2Time
    // end conversion functions
    // perform the calculation using the fields:
    // get the values of the fields
    var cStartTime = this.getField(cStartName).value;
    var cEndTime = this.getField(cEndName).value;
    // clear the value
    event.value = "";
    // test for not null time strings
    if(cStartTime != "" && cEndTime != "") {
    // compute the time difference in minutes
    nDiff = Time2Num(cEndTime, cEndFormat) - Time2Num(cStartTime, cStartFormat);
    event.value = Num2Time(nDiff);
    } //end not null values
    I have no prior knowledge of JavaScript, only what I have found here on the forums and a lot of luck. I would appreciate help on this problem. Thanks!

    Thank you Gilad D, that worked making a hidden field and just creating the subtraction for the break with that field!   But for future reference if anyone else comes across this question, this is what I used for the time without subtracting the break.
    // Get first field value
    var v1 = getField("Finish Time 1").value;
    //Split field value
    var time1 = v1.split(":");
    // Get second field value
    var v2 = getField("Start Time 1").value;
    //Split field value
    var time2 = v2.split(":");
    var min1 = time1[0]*60 + time1[1]*1 //
    var min2 = time2[0]*60 + time2[1]*1 ;
    event.value = ((min1 - min2) / 60) ;
    If anyone know how to add a break into this script, have at it! But creating a hidden field with the answer of the above script and then creating another box that takes that number minus a break worked good.
