Use another sound card for the microphone. Those early HiTec/bgears/Auzentech cards all have defective microphone ports where the recording volume doesn't go beyond 5-10%.

EDID flashing *is* the only way right now to get bezel management work on different monitors. Bezel management looks at the Image Size section of the EDID. If they don't match, bezel management doesn't work. Here's the tutorial on rage3d on how to change your EDID. Altho the poster forgot to...

Note I have a G15 not a G19. Same thing minus the color LCD. Does it really help in games? No. BF: Bad Company 2 is the only game that offers some useful information for it. WoW is close but is really worthless in the long run. The performance monitor that comes with the drivers is more...

When I fixed my 1st gen unit's RROD a while ago I found the major cause of it to be extremely improperly applied thermal paste. I kid you not, they basically used a teaspoon worth of the shitty white thermal paste that turns into bubblegum when it dries on the GPU and CPU. After cleaning all...

Yea, biggest issue is the card is just too damn long. CM scout cases can't fit them. Had to go back to my old Lian LI case and take out the HD cage to make it fit. That goofy intake and shroud covering the end is the problem. If those things weren't there it'd probably fit.

Yep, I'm having the exact same problems as purecain in that post after flashing my Diamond 4870 with RBE last night. Ran fine for awhile and then refused to boot this morning. Also 3 out of the 4 LEDs power on when the system powers up. Edit: DOS flashing with original bios doesn't fix it...

ATH-A700 + Medusa's replacement microphone ghetto modded onto the headphones. It's another option if you want a real headset microphone instead of some clip-on mic but you'll need some adapters from ratshack. The microphone's plugin is just a normal RCA plug so you'll need: RCA jack...

This is more like a de-optimizer than an optimizer. I've been getting random hard locks & IRQL_NOT_LESS_THAN bsod as well since I installed this patch earlier in the night. I just uninstalled it so hopefully my system's stability is back to normal again.

I wonder if the microphone jack will work properly this time around. It was friggen horsesh*t on the x-mystique. Everything maxed out on recording + mic boost turned on and all you'd get is 3 input bars outta a scale of 15-20 bars when you talked into the mic. :rolleyes:

Yep, all the cards have a defective mic input. I have it, my friends that own this card have it and a couple other people on this forum have reported it as well. Funny that not a lot people notice it tho, must not be a lot of gamers that use mics in here with this card. 2 things you can do...

So anyone try out any microphone recording yet with their cards? I've noticed with my card I have to crank the microphone recording volume all the way to maximum and enable mic boost just to have only 3 bars show up in the mixer page when I talk normally. Also when I'm voice testing with...

Just a quick Q for anyone that owns this card. Anyone else have extremely low recording levels using a microphone? I have it turned up full blast with mic boost enabled and at best I when I talk into my mic it only lights up 1/4 of the recording bar. I've tried 3 different mics so that isn't the...

nah, he just bought or was sent the wrong sticks. The TWINX1024-3200PT is what he has. The memory for sale here is TWINX1024-3200C2PT.

I would start moving important stuff off that drive asap at the very least. One of my friends just had his WD120 die on him yesterday. He got a SMART warning about 3-4 weeks ago about that drive. Everything was fine and dandy until he turned on his computer yesterday and heard an electrical...

Goto www.monitorsdirect.com when their servers are back up. They got a free web based program in their After you buy --> Free software section that will cycle between red/green/blue/black/white. It's sized for 1280x1024 LCDs but it'll strech to 2005 size (altho the arrows at the bottom will be...
