[QUOTE=SataniX;31623112]Disable the realtek audio in Device Manager. Their drivers conflict with a lot of things (Nvidia's drivers for one.)[/QUOTE] Alright I will do this. Also how would I go about clearing all Nvidia drivers? then starting fresh with a new one? [editline] August 9th 2011 [/editline] Should I just use driver sweeper?
There is something in my task manager list called "plugin-container.exe" It's using up notable amounts of memory, and is occasionally using CPU resources as well. What is it? I don't remember seeing it before. [editline]9th August 2011[/editline] It was on when I started my computer this morning.
[QUOTE=SuperDuperScoot;31628159]Does anyone know of a free and simple GIF maker I can use?

Could anyone tell me if [url=http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0027VT6V4/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER]these speakers[/url] are pretty good? I want good quality but I don't want to waste $40 on something mediocre when I could get something that might be a lot better for just $30 more.

What do you guys think of this bundle? [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.679860[/url] I'm going to be using it with these: Case- [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146060&Tpk=lexa%20s[/url] PSU- [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817702010[/url] GPU- [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130663[/url] I'll probably be getting this later this month, not 100% sure yet.

I get no video before I boot into windows too
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;31631958]I get no video before I boot into windows too[/QUOTE] If it can't show the POST then it is the GPU.
I am not getting video on the nvidia card now.
[QUOTE=Intoxicated Spy;31632443]I am not getting video on the nvidia card now.[/QUOTE] is it in the slot properly? Did you ground yourself?
[QUOTE=Nsybouts;31631382]Okay so I disabled the Relteak driver but now I am getting no audio so that means that these Nvidia sound drivers are completely useless. Should I try putting in a dedicated sound card?[/QUOTE] Yeah, that's the only problem. I'm using a sound card that game with my headset (A USB sound-card converter thingeh) personally, so I don't have a problem. I've also heard rolling back to earlier NVIDIA drivers works, but idk about that.

[QUOTE=GoDong-DK;31633110]That's not really a good deal. It would be much better for you to go AMD on this budget.[/QUOTE] Well then what do you recommend? I'd say the budget is about $270.
[QUOTE=Makol;31633177]Well then what do you recommend? I'd say the budget is about $270.[/QUOTE] You already have the case, PSU and GPU? I'll get back to you tomorrow at some, have to get up early.

How about switching to a USB sound adapter? (like the ones that come with logitech headsets)

So my friend wants a gaming laptop, with a budget of around 1000 USD. He says he wants a laptop that will be able to run games that will be coming out over the next few years well. Before you say, "Get a desktop", I've already tried to tell him that but he says that he doesn't have the room in his house. Right now I think the [url=http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/laptops/NP-RF711-S02US] Samsung RF711-S02 [/url] might be the best gaming laptop at this pricepoint. Are there any other better choices out there?
