    Post Your Workstation 2009!

    I got this thing at Costco like 3 years ago. Sadly I need to get a new chair for the same reason. I'd love to get another one of these. It was really comfortable when it was in it's prime, and pretty cheap. Except they don't seem to make it anymore. :( Thanks Pheonix. Yea I think I'm just...

    Post Your Workstation 2009!

    Latest. I will try and get a daytime shot as soon as I clean my room. The green you see are those color changing lights from Ikea. While I am here. How awkward is it to have two different sized monitors as dual monitors. With that nice 23" Samsung on sale for around 160 I want...

    Didn't think about setting filters for SPDIF since I never had to do that in the past. That worked and now I'm getting sound to all 6 channels. Thanks guys.

    Windows 7 and Optical Output

    Just updated the BIOS to the latest and still seem to have the issue. I'm guessing its just a driver/software issue. When in the properties for the optical setup, I am able to run the DTS Audio test under the Supported Formats tab and properly get signal from all 6 speakers. :confused:

    Need a new motherboard

    Well last night in a show of wonderful fireworks and smoke, not really, my motherboard went out. I was running the Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H. I have just upgraded to an ATI HD4850 so I don't exactly need the onboard video anymore. I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 AM2 processor. My only...

    Antec Fusion Black restarts when shocked

    Awesome, thanks! I thought it was a grounding issue, but I was thinking how could a company like Antec screw something like that up. Thought it had something to do with the VFD. Silly me.

    Dual Audio Output

    Hey all, I've been trying to find a way to do this for a long long time but have failed miserably. I have the gigabyte GMA78GM-S2H and I mainly use it for my home theater so it is output directly to my audio receiver using optical. But I also have a seperate monitor setup at my desk. On my...
