I just brought home a new Asus laptop, which I love in almost every way except... it sounds terrible. Both the oddly located speakers and the headphone out jack which makes even Skullcandies sound thin and bassless. Uuuughhh. It's the K601 model, purchased for $549 from Best Buy. My question...

Current audio device is NuForce uDAC. Current graphics device is NVIDIA GeForce 210. CPU is an Intel Core 2 Duo Processor E4500 with 2 gigs of RAM. Running Windows 7. Hope that's enough. If not, just let me know.

So I have a bit of an unsolvable issue. It has somehow pervaded through three different sound devices, both internal and external. And so far as I can tell the problem isn't coming from any of those devices. Basically, I get some crackle and pop when scrolling, clicking to minimize a window...

Guys, I never really asked what was wrong with the hard drive. Thanks for trying to help but I'm on top of backing up actual files, I would just like to make a comprehensive database so that I know what to look for on the dvds I'm burning.

So farm not finding anything matching the description. Nothing that can give me some sort of list file type thing.

My 1TB external hard drive has started glitching lately. Accessing certain folders results in a never-ending attempt to load which eventually freezes explorer and slows down my whole system. Oddly enough, the files in these folders are accessible from other programs and seem fine so.. not sure...

Head-fi seems might douchey right now.

Well, vocalist isn't necessarily equated to singer. At least not speaking of technical skill. Beyonce has a very powerful voice but I don't often like what she does with it (as someone said, lots of gale force yelling and unneccesarry noodling going on). Lady GaGa may not have this awe-inspiring...

If you can take the pic, that'd be best. I sympathize though, I suck at explaining what I want to hair stylists and so I always end up with something that's not what I wanted at all. Btw, the boy in the pic is quite pretty.

Right now I am using the two front speakers (in 2ch stereo mode) that came with my Yamaha HTR-6030 Receiver, which I purchased at the beginning of 2008. Never bothered with the rear speakers, lost the cord to my sub when moving things around and I don't even know why I stopped using the center...

I've had a 4GB Sansa Clip+ for several months but only ended up using it a few times at the gym. Now that my ipod is pretty much out of commission, I have made it my main PMP. I've been using explorer to add individual mp3 files for a while but that method is becoming messy. The only way to...

Do something productive for once. Go buy a tuner and some new strings and take up playing guitar again. Take the influence of all the music I love and turn it into something new and my own.

A little background here. I do have friends, a few anyway. But what with people moving away, growing apart, etc. my network of friends is growing smaller. I'm down to three actual friends left, one of whom is busy with her boyfriend 90% of the time. This wouldn't be so bad. I can and have been...

If two wrongs don't make a right, I seriously doubt a dozen of them are going to make things much better. As if pulling the gun on the guy and making him leave his shoes, wallet and cell phone wasn't enough? Was all that revenge necessary? My two cents: Poster is a ****** bag and as bad as...

You know what sucks worse than just being single? Being in love with someone you can have. And having a a few of the things you want, just not the whole thing. Grah.

Well, being single is great unless it's how you've always been. No time to process experience and figure out if there is nothing to process.
