Well the audio drivers should be installed (according to the cd that came with it)... http://i47.tinypic.com/2h5k0g4.jpg So I guess that means it should be disabled. However I found "show hidden/disabled devices" enabled it and still nothing shows up. :o http://i50.tinypic.com/ruzeyh.jpg S...

Here is the screenshot. http://i49.tinypic.com/mc8d8x.jpg As far as where I plugged the headphones in I am sure they are the correct spot. It is right in front with the pink and green holes. I am connecting my computer to my tv through HDMI cable, would that have anything to do with it?

Hello everyone. Recently I just built a computer with the following components... CPU / MOBO: AMD X3 450 cpu GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-S2P AM3+ MEMORY: Crucial 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5 VIDEO: Sapphire 11202-00-20G Radeon HD...

Well everyone I just wanted to let you know that I placed my order. :D CPU / MOBO: AMD X3 450 cpu GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-S2P AM3+ MEMORY: Crucial 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 Western Digital Caviar Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5 VIDEO: Sapphire 11202-00-20G Radeon HD 7750 CASE ...

You are correct, for your situation AMD is better bang for your buck. I honestly think you will be pleasantly surprised with the 7750, I have a 7770 and it is nice card. I used to be a power-fiend, but have since settled for low heat/noise alternatives. The performance difference isn't that extreme...

So, with that said I would like some reassurance on two things. 1)These are all of the parts I need to make a computer correct? 2)All of these parts should work together when I set it up? yes.... no surprises like an MATX case that won't fit an ATX psu, or a motherboard that won't fit the CPU or la...

I will look in to lowering the RAM to 4 gigs. If I do decide to drop it to 4 gigs of RAM will the negatively affect me later down the road? (I realize this is probably a pretty silly question but I thought I would ask it anyway :roll: ) I will also look into getting away without a DVD drive. I will...

Well it looks like you are pretty set. Obviously, keep reading TR articles and come back if/when you decide to upgrade anything on your system. I've always valued individual experiences in choosing products. As one more suggestion, shop around if you want to save some cash. Newegg is nice, but some...

Alright well once again I want to say thank you to everyone who has replied to this thread. You have all been more then helpful. Firstly just to clear up some things that I should have included in my original post. - I have a keyboard, mouse and monitor so those do not have to be included in the $40...

Alright, well now that I am done with work let me address some of the questions thrown my way. Here's the thing about $400 (and cheaper) PCs...if you're building your own, it might actually be cheaper to get one from HP or Dell (and you get tech support). The issue is that you have to slap an extra ...

Hello everyone! I can't believe the amount of help I am getting. I just wanted to give you guys an update. I will reply to all of you however currently I am at work on my phone. Once I am done in a few hours I will answer all questions.

Hello everyone! :D I have just joined these forums and so far I am loving how friendly and helpful the community is. I have just gotten really in to PC gaming within the past few days however unfortunately my current computer (HP Pavilion dv4) doesn't quite cut the mustard if you know what I mean in...
