If you want to change the output location, you can do so by right-clicking and selecting Output File Saving Management from near the middle of the list. Enjoy your videos! Unfortunately, a whole host of them start with Windows, so it can be tricky to figure out if one of them is causing a problem, and if so, which one. The best way to troubleshoot this type of problem is to boot your PC clean. A clean boot is one where no unnecessary background processes launch at startup.
In the Open: field, type msconfig. In Vista, simply type. The System Configuration Utility will launch, which will allow you to modify which services start up with Windows. When your PC reboots, it will be running clean.
If the problem still occurs, then one of the programs you just enabled is the perpetrator. Now, change the list so that only half of the suspect services are enabled and repeat the process.
Good luck! So, now you know that one of the programs you disabled is the cause of your problem. The Vista bit Home Premium on your parts list is the system builder pack, intended for system builders only. I am a home user. I have to register with my business information, of which I have none. Please respond I am on pins and needles waiting for the reply.
Instead, you can just insert the DVD and install it as normal. The reason OEM licenses for Vista are cheaper than retail versions is that they are tied to your specific motherboard—if you replace the motherboard, you may have to get a new Vista license. My system is an AMD 2. I assume there is an autoexec. Is this normal? Should I have let it run to completion?
Just remove that media before you start your computer, and you should boot normally. In Windows XP top , Audacity can record directly from the soundcard, but in Vista below , the feature has been disabled by Microsoft. I came across some related forums and tried a couple of suggestions check disabled items on the Sound properties, etc.
If so, how can I record audio from the Internet? On the bright side, music subscription services like Rhapsody let you download from a selection of millions of songs for a small monthly fee and keep them as long as you have your subscription , while Internet radio stations like Pandora, last. When I try to load Windows, I get a generic blue screen that tells me to run a system diagnostic, do a memory check, and remove any mismatched memory or newly installed hardware.
Was this memory EPP 2. To eliminate any problems, you should make sure you are running default timings and speeds for the RAM and frontside bus. You should now be able to install XP without issues. Does this appear if EPP 2. Can I run higher-speed non-EPP 2. Play It All Doc, I need some help! Using what I learned from your mag, I built a small home theater PC. I have to play the movie in sections. Daily Grind I recently upgraded my computer. When I shut down my PC, it makes a metallic grinding-type noise.
It also happens when my computer is running at full load. Any advice? The way the Doctor sees it, this could be one of two things. First, check to make sure none of your case fans are hitting anything: errant wires, the sides of their enclosures, etc. Same goes for your CPU fan—if one of its cooling fins is bent it could be hitting against a fan. Otherwise, that could be the sound of a hard drive head grinding against a platter, which is exactly as bad as it sounds, because it means that the drive is going to crash soon.
If you have more than one hard drive, try to isolate which one of them is making the sound. Then back up the data on it and start looking for a replacement. First, grab a fire extinguisher and douse the flames. Once the pyrotechnic display has fizzled, email the doctor at doctor maximumpc. Well, think again. The top-end CPU may be the speed king, but we seriously wondered if a stock-clocked, 2. The results were surprisin. Both benchmarks are multithreaded and thus we saw the eight-core four real, four HyperThreaded FX acing the Reactor by 31 percent in ProShow Producer and achieving near dead-even scores in Main Concept.
In Crysis, the X2 saw frame rates in the 34fps range. The tri-SLI Reactor ran in the 53fps range. The Delta PSU in the rig even features a harness to support. There are some other nice touches in the FX Not great, but not bad. We particularly like the two additional, easy-to-access drive bays in front. Slide open a door, and you can insert two 3. Our current desktop test bed consists of a quad-core 2.
The upshot is that the X2 has a tiny memorybandwidth edge. Even Indeed, the BFG card laid down the smack in every single benchmark we test, a rare feat. Best scores are bolded. Crysis and 3DMark Vantage are run at x with 4x AA and 8x anisotropic filtering, unless otherwise noted. Call of Duty is run at x with 4x AA. Today, motherboards also must advertise to the entire world that you have one badass system. Does it work? The Flame Chiller looks cool, though!
Another two eSATA ports are available on the backplane, too. Instead of an audio card riser that stabs into an x1 slot or some custom slot alternative, the riser board with Realtek. One thing DFI needs to add, though, is a status page, so you can tell what your tweaks have changed.
For example, you should be able to see what DRAM frequency you have selected instead of calculating it manually. And for the most part, the promise is delivered —but not without some serious issues. After a surprisingly painless installation—you just need to plug the IR emitter into a USB port and install drivers—we loaded up several of our favorite games from the past year.
And thankfully, none of our testers experienced the nausea that was typical of previous shutter glasses, even after extended play sessions—this was due to our use of a Hz monitor, a requirement of the goggles.
The only complaints testers had were that they felt a slight cross-eyed sensation and increased eyestrain during use. But our biggest problem with 3D Vision is the cost of the experience. Worse yet, these pricey LCDs are currently limited to entry-level inch panels x max resolution. But our eager anticipation only made the reality of the TouchSmart tx2 all that more disappointing. Benchmark performance, on the other hand, was dismal more on that later.
You can use the TouchSmart tx2 as a conventional notebook PC or rotate its This machine came with the bit version of Windows Vista Home Premium. As you can see in the chart below, the.
TouchSmart tx2 is abysmally slow with hardcore applications. And while the machine was nearly silent when idle or playing a movie, it sounded like a hair dryer when given a heavy load. Our zero point notebook uses a 2. It weighs two pounds, 10 ounces, stands 6. The TEC, which needs to be powered by a 4-pin Molex on a dedicated power lead, activates only when needed.
Two retention clips attach to the cooler, which you then attach to a bracket you mount on the back side of the motherboard. This means removing your motherboard and balancing the cooler on your lap while you screw it in. Thus the GH22LS30 was able to write 4. The two drives were close performers when reading and writing dual-layer discs, as well—when the content was data, that is.
The GH22LS30 wrote 7. Our new disc-ripping test Best scores are bolded. All tests were conducted using Verbatim media and Nero CD DVD Speed, except the ripping test, whereby we time how long it a read operation, as far as the optical takes to copy the contents of a double-layer DVD to a Velociraptor hard drive.
See page 62 for details. It measures just 1. DLP projectors create an image by bouncing light off microscopic mirrors arranged in a matrix on a semiconductor.
Each mirror represents a pixel in the image and swivels to either reflect light through the lens or to an internal heatsink. Toggling these two states on and off creates a grayscale. Color pixels are created by using either a color wheel or a colored light source.
Optoma uses a non-replaceable LED for its light source, which it claims should last for 20, hours. Good thing it comes with a spare. You connect the projector to a source using either a special cable or an iPod dockingport adapter both are included. That limitation pretty much rules out the device as a PowerPoint tool for the traveling businessperson, because a VGA signal converted to composite does a very poor job of displaying text.
And while it can throw an impressively large image it produced a inch diagonal picture from its maximum distance of inches , the image was unsatisfactorily faded in daylight hours, even with heavy curtains covering the window.
The Pico performs best in a very dark room or at distances much closer to the screen, where its light is concentrated on a smaller area. Crisp, bright display at distances up to about six feet; incredibly small, battery powered, built-in speaker. Just kidding. Adobe continues to use its dumbed-down interface, which we initially viewed with disgust.
The menus and titling in the consumer video editor continue to be top-notch, as well. Changes to the program include AVCHD editing support, which we welcome, and the addition of wizard-like features, some good, some so-so.
InstantMovie, for example, allows you to easily turn a bunch of clips into a movie, parsing the best clips and adding transitions and effects for you automatically.
On the other hand, SmartSound makes creating soundtracks a snap. It includes some free music, or you can add your own MP3s to create copyrightviolating home movies. Our favorite wizard is the SmartTags feature, which mitigates the tedium of organizing your clips.
After you import clips, it scans them for close-ups, crowds, small groups, blurry images, shaky shots, and even focus problems. The content would capture, but we could not watch it as it was captured. OK, not a show stopper. Premiere Elements 7. The app would either hang or reboot Windows Vista bit. We checked online and others have reported problems getting lengthy high-def video to Blu-ray disc, as well. Only by tweaking OS settings were others able to complete their projects.
For the record, we had no problems burning the same project at DVD resolution. When we contacted Adobe, our rep initially said the app is limited to burning roughly an hour of high-def resolution video. Adobe then later claimed to successfully burn two hours of high-def with no problems.
All we know is that our project burned when we edited it to 17 minutes but choked at 59 minutes. Our other issues with Premiere Elements go back to the roots of the program.
Try to feed it weird exotic video codecs and it chokes. Maybe version The running, jumping, and climbing bits are utterly engaging and even transcendent. And therein lies the rub. The rooftop chases, where the designers were free to build manypathed courses through the map, are sublime.
By confronting the player with a constant stream of risk-vs. And then you go inside. Later in the game, you have to disarm and disable your ever-present pursuers in order to open the path forward. Were melee combat. When Monolith got the franchise back, we expected great things from its second outing; sadly, FEAR 2: Project Origin never really comes into its own.
A few sections with agile wall-crawling enemies are the only engaging moments, but everything else is typical shooter fare—that includes sections where you drive a giant mech and mow down enemy soldiers like cutting grass.
What is unique to the FEAR franchise is its main antagonist, Alma, the understandably upset ghost of a little girl exploited by an evil corporation that used her DNA to create psychically controlled clone soldiers. Slowing down time lets you enjoy every drop of the 10 gallons of blood ejected from a bulletriddled soldier. However, the actual characters you interact with are mostly two-dimensional, so you have to pay close attention and do a bit of hunting to get much out of the story.
Any respectable hardware will run FEAR 2 maxed out at a great frame rate, and it looks pretty good aside from the noticeably wooden facial animation. FEAR 2 will be bought, played, mostly enjoyed, and thrown onto the shelf to be forgotten with the countless other pretty-goodbut-not-great shooters. We prefer the convenience of using a ubiquitous container format to the less compatible alternatives. Thank you for signing up to PC Gamer.
