It may have been plain old light. Not sure. Lasers where invented in what? `58 or something?

Not the way I heard it :D. One day, a group of folks decided to measure the speed of the rotation of the Earth, so they fired a laser first from East to West, then West to East, and carefully and very accurately recorded the time and distance. They expected to find a different speed for the...

That seems pretty funky, but here's the explanation for it. Your CD drive has a cable that goes straight into your sound "card" embedded on your mainboard, so it bypassess a lot of stuff. Here's what to do. Take your box over to your buddy's house, and switch soundcards with him. See if...

For what it's worth, rumor has it that the invasion of Baghdad takes place in 48 hours.

Which is why one chooses an insured broker. I must be too tired, I don't really see your point.

I'm not familiar with a zipped folder, but I have zipped up multiple files into a zip file many times. If you have files with .zip extentions, then those are files, not really folders. So you can copy them from the command line w/o them being unzipped. I think. Copy two of them over to...

Not sure what your problem is, but here is a brute force solution that is pretty much guaranteed to work (double your money back if not 100% satisfied :D ): Fire up the command line - hit the start button, press R and enter either "command" (Win95, 98 and mebbe 2k) or "cmd" (WinXP and mebbe...

Exactly. Last year I finished deducting all my losses from 2000.

Yeah, that was one thing I just realized. Some of our tax money (at least, here in the USA and I expect in most of the rest of the world) goes towards price supports and tariff implementation. In other words, some of the money extorted from us in taxes goes to make other stuff we buy even...

Been a while since I ran W2k, look for something called the Device Manager. I think (but am not sure) W2K will tell you if you have an IRQ conflict. But that's very unlikely. You can run a sound card on most (if not all) mainboards that have an embedded sound card. You should (and may have...

OK, add up all the taxes that you have totals for, like state, local and federal income taxes, SocSec and Medicaid, property taxes and all the rest. If you've never done this, prepare for a shock. Most folks have absolutely no concept of how much they actually fork over.

That sounds like a hardware failure. IRQ failures are much more rare these days (if you are running WinXP/98/2k), but you can check them. If you are running XP wait until the failure occurs, then go to your control panel, and select System. Select the hardware tab, then Device Manager...

DO NOT CONNECT TO THE INTERNET FROM 12:01 AM GMT ON APRIL 1 TO 12:01 AM GMT,APRIL 2 !! *** *** Attention *** It's that time again! As many of you know, each year the Internet must be shut down for 24 hours in order to allow us to clean it. The cleaning process, which eliminates dead...

Another way to check this good possibility is to reboot once you notice your sound is dead. If it comes back OL, your problem is prolly not heat-related.

That was interesting, thank you Doug S.

That's what I am running.

I dunno, but they released Build 919 today. To me, anyways, other folks mighta got it earlier.

Rebooting worked! Woo Hoo. This is build 919 of TS7, BTW.

Just installed the new patch for TS7, and now it's not coming up :(. I'll reboot and try some other stuff, and post my results. :(.

So you have DVI cables from your computer to the analog inputs on your LCDs?:confused:
