You need to install Asus Smart Gesture if you do not already have it installed. Then you can open the application from the system tray and check the "Content moves in the other direction with swipe" option to restore proper scrolling :wink:. On my UX303 Windows Update automatically install...
Tried to install Windows 10 today on my Asus UL80. I ended up with a black screen and a cursor that could not be recovered. Now I'm restoring my windows 7 backup. I'm going to guess that Windows 10 doesn't recognize Hybrid graphics and tried to install the normal nvidia driver. So much for that.
I had a very similar experience last week playing LoL. I was getting ping spikes in game and realized I had forgot to plug in the network cable and it was running off wifi. Switched to Ethernet and everything immediately got better. The other computer in the room was on wifi and didn't experience an...
The Samsung HDTV I have connected to my PC over HDMI has a "HDMI black level" setting which when set to "Low" produces correct colors. Another option is to use Custom Resolution Utility and uncheck "Include extension block" which will present the display as a DVI monitor.
I've used the Turtle Beach P11 (Newegg) which is a USB headset with analog input and separate volume controls. It's kinda cheap feeling but it's comfortable and audio quality is ok.
Maybe it's just the specific hardware I've tried it on, but DD-WRT has never worked that well for me. Recently I put the OpenWRT-based Gargoyle on a DIR-615 C1 and it's been working quite well. QoS is straightforward and seems to work and stability hasn't been a problem yet. Personally I'm using an ...
Are plasmas still useless as PC monitors? I tried a recent Panasonic plasma screen a couple years ago and it was showing image persistence after only using it a very short time. If a TV can't be hooked op as a monitor that's a deal breaker as that's probably 75% of what I would use one for.
Glad to hear you got it figured out. I'll have to check out that program. It's strange because the instructions I gave you should have done the same thing (disable the HDMI instructions), but then again, I've only had to test it on a couple of monitors. I don't think this is an actual nVidia bug , b...
Sorry that the instructions in my previous post weren't terribly clear. The reason the nVidia control panel is reporting the monitor as being connected over DVI is that by editing the monitor's inf file, you're culling the extra HDMI data that would normally be sent to the TV. Some TVs only associat...
It definitely looks like your TV is applying some post-processing to the image. If the TV's menus don't offer a method to disable these "features", you may have to edit the monitor EDID data to get it to display properly. See this post for more info.

Seriously considering the FiiO E10 now. It's relatively cheap and has pretty good reviews. Meanwhile the Creative X-fi HD can't do 44.1KHz without resampling :roll:. Add this adapter and you're ready to rock. Yes, the inline ones are cheaper, but the extra strain on the 3.5mm jack will not be a Good...
I received a set of Sennheiser HD558 headphones for Christmas and had been running them off my Logitech Z-5500's headphone out, but I recently repurposed those speakers for the HTPC so I'm back to the onboard audio. It sounds so bad in comparison that I can't listen to music on my computer anymore. ...
I'd be interested in more data on whether or not high load/unload cycle counts on WD drives are actually reliable wear indicators. My year old 2TB Green WD20EARS drive is at 34516, compared to my over 3x as old WD6400AAKS at 786. A small part of the time I've been running OSX where the cycle count s...
All three, from a strictly electrical point of view (ie: what goes down the copper cable), are identical (at lower resolutions, at least). Converting DVI to HDMI, DisplayPort to HDMI, DisplayPort to DVI, or the reverse, is a simple matter of an adapter that converts the physical plugs; there are no...
I went back and checked the Event Log and noticed that the first occurrence of the driver crash and recovery was May 17, the day the 275.27 beta driver was released. Since then I've stuck to the WHQL releases but at least in my case the crashes aren't specific to the 28x.xx series of drivers. I had ...
I can confirm driver crashes with Firefox and my GTX 560 Ti (thanks again MSI and TR), and I don't think it is (always) Flash related. I haven't been paying close enough attention to know whether it was a driver update to blame, but at times it was bad enough that it occurred several times a day. Th...
Generally your better off making adjustments on the monitor first, especially for brightness. Changing the brightness on the monitor usually adjusts the output of the backlight, reducing power consumption and improving contrast vs. making adjustments in software.
If it's like my Dell monitor, you lock or unlock it by holding the Menu button down for 15 seconds. If setting brightness at 0 still results in a too bright display you should be able to adjust brightness settings in the graphics device's control panel, although any adjustment there will also affect...
At least A/C is only a drag when it is in use. I remember ~20 years ago I knew someone who had a Honda Civic; he referred to the A/C button as the "Turbo" button (as in, hit the A/C button to turn it off when you need a little extra power). :lol: Yeah, my brother's 2006 Jetta actually has...
Excluding accidents, the dominant failure mode of a 4-cylinder, 1985-2000 Toyota Corolla or Camry is that the body slowly disintegrates into a shoebox full of oxide dust, leaving behind an increasingly sloppy yet fully functional engine that features about 20hp less than what the car actually neede...
I found that DriveImage XML did it just fine. It's also free.
According to their FAQ, you can't restore an image to a smaller partition. That could be an issue, or at least an inconvenience when migrating to an SSD.
The program that writes the image back to the disk determines the offset. This press release for Paragon Hard Disk Manager 11 indicates they've added automatic partition alignment, and Drive Copy 11 does advertise HDD>SSD migration capabilty, so at least the latest versions of their software seem to...
You just need to make sure that your imaging program will restore the partition with an appropriate starting offset, i.e. a multiple of 4k bytes, rather than the 63 sector (32256 byte) offset that was typically used on Windows partitions pre-Vista.
Have you considered buying multiple 5400 rpm drives and striping them? Since STR performance and high capacity seems to be what you're after, to me that's the most practical solution.
MP4Box can concatenate mp4 files. It's command line but the syntax isn't too tricky to figure out, and you should be able to find a binary for most platforms.
