[QUOTE=caldog6;48310074]What is a good replacement for windows media player? I personally hate the long ass delay from opening short sound files such as weapon sounds only to have to wait for a few seconds while WMP catches up. Support for .ogg would be nice too.[/QUOTE]

There's foobar2000, it's extremely modular and can support pretty much any file format, including raw SACD formats like DSD.

foobar2k best player.

I'm not so keen on the interface, but the format support (and then plugins) and the startup time are killer features for me. Its realistically possible to open a music file, close foobar, and then open another and not miss a beat.

There are some pretty good skins for it. Some of the interface remains the same, but it can change a fair bit.

[caldog6]

Right, thanks for the help, foobar2000 is so much better at actually playing audio, but is there any recommended skins that change the interface? I'm not really liking the interface too much.

Levelog I've noticed that you're using vivaldi. Can you tell me how to access extension options? I just installed uBlock Origin from the google chrome store but I don't know where the extension options are on vivaldi.

Is there any audio converter where I can convert almost any audio format into .mp3? I used to have like 5 different audio converters, one for each audio formats

vivaldi://extensions should work. Apparently with Version 4 there's a way to have a shortcut to it, but I dunno how.

Audacity supports most file formats and can do this.

[QUOTE=LordCrypto;48308225]iirc if it's not giving you the reservation there's something it doesn't like about your computer

wait until release and it will pop up[/QUOTE]

Does it have some sort of minimum specs sheet somewhere I can look at? It's probably because I gave this VM only 1GB of RAM but if I need to go higher than 2GB it's not worth an early reservation

assuming release hasn't happened yet

I need a reliable HDD for a lot of rendering space. I'll be running two of them in raid 1, and they need to be at least 3TB, any suggestions?

[QUOTE=A Sock Accnt;48319167]I recently bought a new computer, and I can't get it to connect to my monitor. My motherboard is a ASUS Z97-A, my graphics card is a geforce gtx 750 ti, my processor is intel i3-4130, and I have two 4-gig ripjaw ram sticks. Best picture I could get:

I've tried disconnecting my graphics card and plugging the monitor into the MB, I have the monitor plugged into the graphics card, I've tried changing which slot the card is in, and the card does not have a port to plug into the PSU.[/QUOTE]

The best picture you can get is 320x240?

Got two questions today:

1. What's the best and safest way for cleaning a case's dust filter? Specifically (if possible) for a Corsair 380T.

2. Do we have a rough estimate on when Nvidia's Pascal cards are going to be released in 2016? Even which quarter is good enough for now.

Is there a way i can download Update (KB2976978) from somewhere? Windows refuses to get this update which i need for Win10

[Humin]

Ok how do I obtain a windows 7 key? The windows website just sends me in a loop with no actual page to purchase a key and I'm not sure what websites I can go to to just buy a key.

[lavacano]

I think they stopped selling them when Win7 went "security only"

Hi,

I'm at school, and I have and exe file that I want to open. Its not a game or anything - it's for usb security. The admins have everything secured pretty well. Exe files are blocked. Cmd is blocked (although finding a method of opening it it's disabled). I can't change the permissions of the file.

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance

[QUOTE=coyote93;48323738]You made a thread about this, and then you copy/paste the exact same question twice on the same page in this thread?

You claim that your exe is for usb security, well guess what, every block the school admins have set up is also for security.

Usually, if the shit you want to do is legit, its enough to actually ask them if they can give you the permission to do it. School admins are usually really chill dudes.[/QUOTE]

That's my fallback plan

Well it's what you should do.

[Thelurker1234]

I spilt a little water into the top of my case, and I shut the pc off immediately. It's not my main rig so it's not quite life or death if it's still working or not, but it'd be nice if it did. Would letting the pc sit over the weekend, and turning it on next week be a good idea? Or should I pull it open and take out parts or something?

And yes, if it does work I'll certainly be moving it to a spot where it's impossible to spill into.

[FireArrow133]

Did the water leak into the inside of the case?

Is there any trustworthy place that just sells the keys?
