I'm getting some really random audio distortion at times when playing music. Sounds kind of like this: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6NT3li3Lpg[/media] Except it starts off distort>normal>heavy distort. Only lasts a few seconds when it happens.

Does anyone have a cheap recommendation for rgb led light strips on eBay? I'm looking to connect 4 strips to an Aurdino for an ambilight clone.
Today, my ASUS K53SV laptop started blinking its battery indicator light orange. I looked it up and the only real discussion of this issue is for a completely different model, and they say it means that there's some sort of issue charging the battery. That and the official ASUS FAQ just said to do the same old bullshit of unplugging and plugging back in, looking at your battery, etc. Does anyone here know any solid troubleshooting for this issue? I'd hate to replace my battery, those things cost an asston.
I got a Astro A50 which blows me away when i play it on the 360 with Forza 4 but on the PC its less.. "Wow". First i want to test the surround of the headset, i got a few games i want to try but how do i know if its working? My motherboard has a build in optical port which is now connected to the MIXAMP of the Astro. On the Astro itself is a button enabling Dolby Digital, do i need to change any settings on my PC for it to enable surround? Also is there much difference in a default motherboard optical port and a, lets say ASUS Xonar DG(X)?
This may be a silly question but does CCleaner delete anything that I'm going to regreet deleting? Like, one day I'm going to find something missing that I can't get back again?
No, but if you're worried about it look through the list of what it's going to delete before you let it.
Yeah, but I don't understand what 99% of what those files are.

I would say that there would be difference between a on board optical port and a dedicated sound card, but yeah i don't know much about that stuff. And i have checked everywhere to change settings but no result yet, i think i could better ask someone who also has a A50 but no idea where to ask for that :v:
Is there a way in sony vegas to input an array of numbers (say a column from an excel spreadsheet) and have it go through the numbers via text at a set rate? As in, output via text a set of data such as in this video's upper-right: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXwtDTk810s[/media]

Would a 460W PSU be enough to power a GTX 660Ti and i7 2600 all stock clocks?
