Your Questions About Auto Sound Systems Installed

Joseph asks…

I just overclocked my CPU and lost my sound.?

I just OC my CPU for the first time, and after I did, I lost my Audio. I’ve heard that this is common, and have tried to Google the solution and it seems most answers are to find a similar term like “Auto Detect PCI Clk” if possible, and set it as Enabled, after that set the parameter behind “Async AGP/PCI CLK” to 66/33MHz. unfortunately, I can’t find anything like that in my BIOS ( ihave a Gigabyte GA-785GMT-USB3). I also read that simply setting everything back to defaults will fix things, but it didn’t. I even removed my battery from my mobo,

Prior to me OC, my motherboard was already acting up. It wouldn’t even POST if I had more then one stick of RAM installed, which I thought was weird so I took out the other three. Then I figured that while I was waiting for my new board to come in I might as well test OC on this board, and am thinking that the fact that it was already a little messed up may have been the cause.

I know that when you increase the FSB, your whole system is increased as well, but I only took the FSB up by 5 (to 205), the rest was done by my multiplier. it’s hard to believe that 50 more Mhz would be such a difference that this would happen. If anyone has any input, then Id love to hear it.

and by the way, my processor is a Phenom II 955 Black Edition, if that will help at all.
When I say I lost my sound i mean that I get errors. My PC says “The audio Service is not running” when I put my cursor over the audio manager in the lower right hand corner. I even used a sound card as oppose to the onboard sound but still get the same thing. I hope this clarifies a little.
When I start the audio service, it searches for problems and comes up with, “Hardware changes might not have been detected.” It gives me an option to “explore additional options” but then it pretty much tells me to post a question on windows community and other similar options.

dknol answers:

This might not be any help, but i managed to bump mine up by about 45 without it having any affect on my pc. It might be a problem with the motherboard. Are you sure your audio jack is working correctly? As the motherboard overheating could have done something to the audio jack. Or is it software related?

That will sound good but you need at least 1/0 gauge wire for that amount of power.That box would be good for those subs too but you should use 8 or 10 gauge wire for subs

Betty asks…

Alternator and battery question!?

If i want to get these upgraded for a really big sound system in my car which included subs, amps speakers, tweeters, dvd players, dvd player head deck, flip down tv, neons, capacitors and heaps of other shit how do i know what size alternator and battery to get? Will an auto electrician be able to help me if i show him exactly what was going in my car and get him to install the battery and alternator before hand?

dknol answers:

Who ever is selling you your audio/video equipment will be able to advise you as to what electrical system up grades you need. Most of the higher end audio companies also manufacture their own models of alternators. You need the help of a professional audio technician. Most modern audio components are operated on voltage as opposed to current. You need to work out EXACTLY what you want to put in and then figuring your power requirements can be done. Have some idea what you want before you go in so they take you seriously. Walking into a shop and saying I want a crap load of stuff won’t get you very far.

I need to sell my truck! I have a new baby and it’s time to clean some things out, and unfortunatley my truck is one of the things that needs to go. Following are the stats.

1993 F150
Extended cab
Working 4×4
Auto transmission
351W motor that runs strong with 183K
New front fuel tank and comes with a replacement rear tank, I just haven’t had time to install it.
New front brakes
New passenger side wheel bearings
New Trans fluid and Filter
New rear Diff. Fluid
New High pressure fuel lines & Filter
Drop in bed liner
Diamond plate Bed rail caps(spraypainted black…)
The truck has steel wheels on it right now with decent tires, it also includes a spare as well as an extra set of Aluminum wheels with 31″ mudders. The aluminum wheels are decent but the tires are pretty well shot, they have good tread but are pretty dry rotted and I know one does not hold air well. The Paint job is 100% crappy red spraypaint, but it gets the job done. The body does have some rust mainly in the wheel wells and @ the cab corners, but hey, its a cheap old truck with 183k…..its not perfect. It runs great and the truck has made MANY trips to Auburn and to Warsaw with no problems. It makes for a great work truck or mud toy! Truck hauls well, I recently hauled 1800lbs of sand with no problems, bed has some rust on the exterior but overall the inside is clean and solid. I love my truck and am sad to see it go but…it needs to, I have more important things to worry about (and pay for!) I am motivated and would love to see it gone fast!!! (like the band-aid thing!)
Asking $1500 Or bring me your best offer I have title in hand!

Ruth asks…

Why Grand Theft Auto IV didn’t run on my PC?

The gta IV has released for PC.So yesterday I bought it from Wall-Mart.But when I tried to Install it It gives me error message like this:Your system is incompatible with P%.What should I have to do?Below is my System Information.
Operating System:Windows Vista Ultimate Service pack 1
Processor:Intel Pentium 4 3.2 G Hz. ;I bough it in 2004.
Graphic Card:Nvidia Geforce 7300 GS 512 MB.
RAM:2047 MB
Sound card inserted.
Sata 160 GB hard disk with 60 GB free space.

dknol answers:

Your video card and processor are far under the minimum requirements. There is a reason this stuff is listed on the box.

Minimum Requirements:
OS: Windows Vista – Service Pack 1 / XP – Service Pack 3
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 1.8 Ghz, AMD Athlon X2 64 2.4 Ghz
RAM: 1.5 GB Vista / 1 GB XP
Hard Drive 16 GB Free Space
Video Card: 256 MB Nvidia 7900 / 256 MB ATI X1900

As you can see, it requires a dual core processor, which you don’t have. It also requires at least a Nvidia 7900 for a video card, you only have a 7300.

Betty asks…

Angelina Jolie, Cleopatra, and the “black community”, do you think this statement is a false perception that?

the OP is trying to convey?
“The news that Angelina Jolie has been hired to play Cleopatra in an upcoming biopic has some in the African-American community fuming that Jolie is “too white” to play the famous Egyptian pharaoh.”

Or am I misunderstanding what she’s trying to say? Is this directed to the writer of essence or few black people?

I was looking through the comments section is essence, and I didn’t really see any complaining from the black side, but more from the white ( I assume).

Do you think there are a lot of black people that believe Cleopatra was a woman of color (not necessarily black)?

BQ: The role of Cleopatra, is this the type of role any women of color (includes whites) can play? I think so.

Lol cleopatra, was greek roots. And her family just reigned over egypt. I don’t think she had egyptian blood at all

Carol asks…

Think about the conversation between the systems development team and the people from Marathon Vitamin shop?

1.INTRODUCTION MARATHON VITAMIN SHOPS

Marathon Vitamin Shops was successful in getting its Web site up and running. The Web developers put the company’s entire catalog online and included a choice of skins so that each type of customers would enjoy using the Web site.

The analysts are meeting with owner Bill Berry and some employees to evaluate customers’ feedback as well as give their own reactions to the new Web site. They are meeting in a large conference room, where they have a computer with Internet access and a projector. As they sit down at the table, the entry screen for the Web site is projected at the front of the room. “The Website has attracted lots of attention, but we want to give the customers even more so that they keep coming back,” says Bill, gesturing to the screen.

He continues. “It’s not like we’re closing our retail stores or any thing. In fact, it’s just the opposite. When customers notice we’re on the Web, they’re eager to locate the store in their community. They want to be able to walk into store and talk to a trained expert rather than buying everything over the Internet. We need to tell people how to get there.”

“We think we can improve the site by adding special enhancements and features, ‘says AI Falfa, a member of the systems team, who originally developed and implemented the ecommerce Web site.

“Yes,” says Ginger Rute one of the other members of the systems development team, as she nods in agreement.” Blockbuster and Borders use a mapping facility from MapQuest, and Home Depot uses maps from Microsoft Vicinity, which also produces MapBlast!”

Vita Minn, another member of the original systems development team, speaks up enthusiastically, saying, “We know of a couple good message board service and chat rooms we can build into our Web site. We think they can improve the stickiness of the site, making people stay on the site longer and also making them want to return.”

“That’s a great idea, “says Jin Singh, one of the technologically savvy Marathon employees. “We can let customers talk with one another; tell each other about a product they liked, and so on. We could even let them start their own blogs.”

Vita continues by moving to the computer keyboard and saying, “Let me show you the sites at www.planetgov.com and www.worldviewer.com.” As she types in the first URL, the group sees the site projected. “They use chat systems from ichat and Multicity.com, respectively,” she continues.

“Customers also need to search for more information about a product or manufacturer,” AI adds. “Let’s make it easier for them. Let’s look at www.Cincinnati.com for an example. They use Atomz to search for information. “

After listening intently, Bill speaks up. “Medical information could also be useful” he says. “I’ve notice that www.medpool.com has medical news from NewsEdge. I’ve seen people on the treadmills at my health and fitness centre watching the financial channels while they exercise.”

“While we’re at it, why don’t we add news and financial information to the web site?” Ginger asks. “I notice that www.nmmm.com has market news from a company called Moreover.com.”

Think about the conversation between the systems development team and the people from Marathon Vitamin shops. Some of the enhancement suggestions involve taking advantage of free service; others required payments ranging from $1000 to $5000 annually. Although some were good ideas, others may not be practical or feasible. Perhaps some of the ideas just do not make sense for the company.

For each of the following, review what you know about the mission and business activities of Marathon Vitamin Shops. Then make a critical and analytical recommendation regarding each option the analyst and client have made and defend it:
Mashups using Google Maps
Chat rooms and message boards
Blogs
Search engines
Medical information
News feeds and financial markets information.

Subsequently choose any 4 suitable options based on your critical analysis and recommendation and develop the sites to value add Marathon Vitamin Shops.

William asks…

Internet site anyone?

I need your feedback. I am creating a website for the people by the people. Meaning I want this site to be something that you enjoy going to everyday for new and exciting things. To do this I am asking for feedback and comments of what you want to see on there. I have it set up partially now and it consists of blogs of course, but also picture and video sharing, news, health and fitness, night life, art sharing (like poetry, paintings, drawings, etc.). I will also have a romantic section where you can chat with potential mates. But I want to add more of what you want. The site is just about done and I want your opinion on what you want to see. I will also be asking our audience for editors that will add little tid bits about things that are of interest. Please give me your feedback, this is for you. The name of the site is CityRep.Net. Hope to gain some feedback. Thanks for the support…CityRep

dknol answers:

Hi there basically you are part of this people try to give your best and this people that you want will come running to your site.

Your Questions About Bluetooth Technology In Cars

Michael asks…

What purposes does blue tooth serve?

I know what the purpose of bluetooth is on cell phones but I have recently heard about it being in cars too. So my question is what is bluetooth mainly supposed to do and what are it’s possibilities? And what about blu ray discs and things like that, are they connected with this technology?

dknol answers:

Having bluetooth in your car essentially acts a speakerphone so you can drive with both hands and focus on the road while talking on the phone. Many cars have a voice activated phone book so you simply push a button and say “Call ____” and it will dial. This will help when using cell phones while driving becomes illegal. I have bluetooth in my car, and it’s great!!! It is very simple to use and very convient.

An ear peice bluetooth is capable of sending and recieving all kinds of media for your phone. Many people send and recieve songs to avoid paying for them as ringtones.

As for the blu disks and such, I do not know anything about them. =]

John asks…

How do I use Bluetooth to sync my iPhone to my car radio?

I am in the process of getting an iPhone, but I also want to buy a new radio for my car. I know that there is a way for me to use Bluetooth to sync my iPhone to my radio. However, I know absolutely nothing about this technology. I think this will allow me to play music from my iPhone on my radio, but I’m not sure, I’m also not sure if I will have to purchase any kind of plan to make my phone Bluetooth capable. If somebody could help me understand the basic requirements, and maybe how it works, I would really appriciate it.

Linda asks…

Is there ONE device that is an Int’l Cell Phone, GPS, MP3, Bluetooth, Digi Cam, and More?

My friend is moving to Venezuela from Seattle next month for a one year teaching job and asked me to do some research. She wants ONE device (if one exists) that is an affordable international cell phone, GPS, MP3 player, bluetooth, digital camera, video recorder, calendar, and _______ (fill in the blank). Ideally this device would also be a microwave oven, clean house, do laundry, cook gourmet meals, wash the car, pay bills, water the plants, etc. ;-)

Technology changes so quickly that even though I think this is a lot to expect from one device, it wouldn’t surprise me if there is such a device. Nothing surprises me anymore!

What would you recommend, and why?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer this question :-)

dknol answers:

The Google Nexus One. Based on Android, it’s superior to any other device, including the iPhone and anything Blackberry can offer. The device does all those things you mentioned. It’s a GSM phone, so it will work on 99% of the planet.

The Nexus One’s T-Mobile version has the frequencies to work with Digitel’s cell service in Venezuela, including their 3G data.

The phone comes SIM unlocked from the manufacturer, so all she needs to do it slip in the SIM card and she’s ready to go.

Since she’ll be working in a foreign country, she shouldn’t get service in the US then use roaming in South America. This will cost thousands of dollars each month. She needs to use a GSM phone, and get service down there. Far cheaper.

The nice thing is that the phone has integrated Google apps, so it stays in sync with her Gmail, contacts and calendar. No special software needed.

The Nexus isn’t cheap, but it is a terrific phone. She can use it with T-Mobile’s service when she returns. In fact, if the buys the phone outright, she can get a no-contract plan from T-Mo, which are very reasonable.

I’ve had mine since March. Simply terrific, best phone I’ve ever owned.

Steven asks…

Used mustang or new compact SUV?

My parents don’t think a 16 year old should have a new sports car, so it’s either a used mustang (probably 07-09) or a new SUV (either an escape or equinox)

I’ve been watching videos of the escape and equinox. They have ALOT of neat technology features. Like USB port ipod, back up camera, starting car from the key remote, Bluetooth on the car, etc.

If I got a mustang, I wouldn’t have any of that.

The only cars I’ve driven are my mom’s Cobalt (05) and her friend’s land rover.. The land rover was just wayy too big. But I didn’t get the chance to get used to it, only drove it for a day.

I would be driving with my friends alot, so cramming them in the backseat of a mustang… I almost feel bad for them lol.

But I love driving. It’s not that I need a car to go places I NEED to go. I need a ride to school and I just like driving. So that’s where the mustang would just really be nice..

So I’m split between actual performance, vs. inside quality…

Any tips when buying used mustangs or other sports cars?

Thanks!

dknol answers:

Get the mustang you’ll have way more fun.

George asks…

what will be the cost of the pc with all the latest technology and gadets and plz explain the configuration of

the best configuration of theCPU(assembled or branded),the monitor,thekeyboard,printers,scannerscoppiers or all in one,mouse,speakers,webcam,cardreaders,bluetooth dongle,headphones with mike and any other good hardware and ofcourse all the best and the latest softwares like music and video and image editing and mixing and converting.And other softwares for 3d graphic designing;-like to build a house and car and other stufs etc (the free softwares as well as the geniun softwares).

dknol answers:

$3000 is a little on the low side…

I’d say somewhere between $5000-$7500 for the state-of-the-art hardware alone (assuming you don’t want a gigantic monitor) and add in $1500+ for a professional audio/video editing suite…and 3d design software starts about $50 for the basic house one…and rises up to maybe thousands of dollars for the crazy professional ones.

Don’t forget $150 for windows xp pro and maybe $300 for microsoft office pro

these figures above are pretty rough estimates (also assuming that you’re only after consumer level hardware)…if you’re serious about building such a monster…e-mail me.

Your Questions About World Of Warcraft

Charles asks…

what world of warcraft class is best?

i have only played few classes.

lvl 75 druid
lvl 68 dk
and level 35 warlock.

and i was wonder with that experience right there, that class should i work on now?? im not doing hunter since the new update, without mana that energy.

wat should i do?

dknol answers:

There is no best class but there’s a lot of classes/specs that are shittier than others. You’re gonna be terrible at all of them regardless.

Jenny asks…

World of Warcraft assistance?

My two cousins and I want to start and level our characters together, but we have heard that leveling 3 together is difficult as we will be competing for gear. Has anyone done this? And if so, what classes did you choose?

dknol answers:

Hi.
There are 10 classes in game for you to choose. And in each of this class, there are 3 other “paths” that your character can take, For most of the classes, a different path mean you will need different gears.
There are 4 types of gears in game. I’ll give you a list for easy reference:
+Cloth: Priest, Mage, War Lock.
+Leather: Druid, Rogue.
+Mail: Hunter, Shaman.
+Plate: Paladin,Warrior, Death Knight.
And even within each gear type, there are DPS gear, Healer gear and Tank gear to choose. So, quick math, if all 3 of you play, there’s about 30+ combination of classes that you can choose so as to NOT be competing for gear.
Personally, i’ve level my character with 6 other class mates before, at the same time ofcourse.
And to answer your last question, i would suggest at least one of you choose a Tanking class (1 of those plate wearer) or Healing class (Priest, Shaman, Druid, Paladin) so that your journey at the later level will be more pleasant.

Sandra asks…

where can i download the ultimate World of Warcraft weapon?

I want to know where I can download to ultimate/best weapon for world warcraft?

dknol answers:

You can’t download a new weapon.

That being said, the best weapon will differ depending on the different class that you play. For example, I have a Druid, Priest, Warlock and Warrior all at lvl 70 and what is good for one will be pointless for the other.

If you are playing a class like a warrior or a rogue (which is what I have seen a lot of casual players play) is the Warglaive of Azzinoth. You get them off of Illidan and when you see anyone walking around with them you automatically think they are l33t. Here are the links…

Http://thottbot.com/i32837

http://thottbot.com/i32838

As for me, I like the healing classes a lot more so I would go with Staff of Immaculate Recovery. Here is the link:

http://thottbot.com/i32344

I hope this helps. If you have any questions then please ask! :D

Linda asks…

Should I get World of Warcraft?

Should I buy World of Warcraft? I know it has been out for a number of years and I used to be an avid player, but canceled my account last year. I’m really considering playing it again due to the new expansion coming out. Is World of Warcraft now outdated, or is it worth looking into again?

Thanks

dknol answers:

Yes I know for a fact that its a great game my husband has it and plays it almost everyday!! I played it a little the other night and it starts out slow but after you get ur spells and stuff its really fun!

John asks…

What are some game for iPhone that are like runescape and or world of warcraft?

I want to buy a game that is like runescape or world warcraft I don’t know any for my iPhone could you help me out?

dknol answers:

World of Warcraft: Cataclysm is a great addition to the series. There are always winers with every expansion who claim “they ruined the game forever, I’m never coming back.” If you liked WoW in the past you’ll probably like it now, and with the complete remake of Azeroth, if you have never played the game, now is the time to start. If you like MMORPGs this is a great one.

Your Questions About Mp3 Players Deals

Linda asks…

What’s the deal with my mp3 players usb cord?

When I connect my mp3 player to my computer, the arrow thing shows up in the right corner of the screen on my computer, then it disappears. Besides clicking on that arrow icon, is there another way to safely eject my usb cord besides shutting down my computer?

dknol answers:

Hi,

Sounds like someone set it up so the icon is hidden either when not in use or all the time (except when you just start the USB device up).

Put your mouse cursor over that left-pointing arrow by where you’d normally see the remove-hardware icon and see if it moves to the left, exposing more icons.

Otherwise, right-click on the toolbar, de-select “lock toolbar”, select “properties”, de-select “hide inactive icons”, select “customize”, locate the “remove-hardware icon” item and make sure the setting is set for “always show”. Then re-lock the toolbar. (You might only need to de-select “hide inactive icons”, or you might like it better choosing the “remove-hardware” icon as always showing. I hope I didn’t confuse you. If you were here it would be easy to show you.)

Best of Luck.

Richard asks…

what is the deal with CD players that say they are MP3 too?

I bought this cd player that says it is a personal CD/MP3, so, is this cd player a mp3 player too. Will my cd player play songs like a mp3. What is an mp3? Do you have to dowload songs? Then if you do, how do you transfer them into your CD/MP3?

dknol answers:

You can play CD’s with music saved as MP3 files from the internet and etc, as well as “regular” CD’s.

I make copies of my CD’s with a program like Windows Media Player so I don’t need to worry about leaving the original CD’s in my car or losing the originals.

Daniel asks…

Will 2 GB MP3 Players Be Obsolete By Christmas?

I found a deal on a 2 GB MP3 Player and I wanted to purchased it for my friend as a Christmas present. But will 2 GB MP3 players be inexpensive by Christmas and I can wait to purchase it then?

dknol answers:

Well, everything becomes obsolete eventually.

Just a few years ago, a 512MB MP3 player was good.

Ten years ago, a 32MB MP3 player looked good!

Mandy asks…

I need some advice on ipod/mp3 players!?

I am brand new at this ipod/mp3 deal. I need some advice on the differences. Personally, I am looking for a player that is: 1) easy to download music to, 2) holds a decent amount of memory, 3) No more than $150 and 4) comes in black.

Any advice would help alot. Thanks

Oh and I really don’t care so much about video. This is primarily going to be used for music.

dknol answers:

In my opinion, iPods are the best MP3 players.
For your price range, I would definitely go with the 4GB new iPod nano. It holds up to 1,000 songs, and you can put videos and pictures on it too (if you want.) Its $149 (how convenient!).

The iTunes program is REALLY simple. You can buy music from it, or just store it. You just plug your iPod into the computer, it detects it on the program, and you can literally drag music from your iTunes library onto the iPod.

Carol asks…

about ipods and mp3 players?

I have an mp3 player that i’ve had for a long time about 2 years or so and it’s been giving me technical trouble. The music from fm radio keeps on fading in and out constantly and i don’t get very good reception from it. So therefore im looking into ipods and/or mp3 players and seeing what deals they have out there and which one are a good price for someone on a budget. I would like to try getting an ipod but im not sure how expensive they are or if they have any that may be relatively within a decent price. I just want something that’ll give me better reception and that the music won’t constantly fade in and out on me. If anyone could please give me any ideas on whats out there for mp3 players and/or ipods and some price figures it would be great. Thanks and have a good day.

Sincerely,
Adam.A from Mass

dknol answers:

You should really invest in an iPod. I was never for it, but I finally gave in to a fourth generation iPod and I love it! I have and iPad 2 now but the iPod is great for the price. I get most of my things on amazon cuz things always tend to be lower priced there and I got my 32Gb. IPod for $279 I believe. The only reason I gave in was because now it has a camera. Not many mp3′s have that and there are literally a million cool things to do with an iPod. You’ll love it too cuz it’s wifi enabled. Nothing will be regretted! Lol and there’s also the cheaper 16Gb version so check on that price too. Hope this helps!

Your Questions About Work Online From Home And Get Paid For Free

Ruth asks…

How do I start working as a free-lance writer or translator?

I see that many people work from home and write for online magazines or newspapers. Can I start working for a serious publishing house/magazine online and get paid for my articles??

I need advice from people who work in the field.

dknol answers:

For the online magazine or newspaper, you might to send your article to them, they will only hire you if they found you are very good, else they might only consider to pay for the article they accept.

Many of those freelance translator or writer get work from many source, magazine or newspaper is one of the source but some of them are active at freelancer site or job forum.

Mary asks…

Is there a legitimate free online job?

So, i am a full time college student, therefore I don’t have much free time. I need a job that allows a flexible schedule, so I was thinking that an online job would be the best. However all I can find are scams and those websites that have you click on adds and join all sorts of stuff so you end up spending more than you earn.

I’m not looking for a “get rich quick” scheme, I know that is completely unrealistic. I’m just looking for a legitimate job online that I don’t have to pay a start up fee, or whatever that particular site wants to call it after all you don’t have to pay anything to get a job anywhere else, why should you to work from home?

So if anyone has any ideas please tell me! Thank you!

dknol answers:

Unfortunately I have yet to find real online work. There are tons of ads for data entry, customer service and other support staff positions listed as work from home but they don’t appear to be legitimate. Good luck in your search.

Besides Traffic Geyser, there is a free service called Tube Mogul. It works in much the same way. Additionally there is a software package I found called Tube Mastery (http://www.websitemarketingskills.com/recommends/TubeMastery) which works really well in terms of how to market on YouTube. The same basic information is true on the other sites, as well. Use your profile page to link to your site and use calls to action to get people to respond. I would just buy that program and familiarize yourself with it.

Lizzie asks…

Where can i find the best free online grants and loans for a single father?

I’m 35 years old, i’m looking to go to school on my computer at home. and i have no money, I’m looking for 100% free grant money with extra loan money for books and living, I have an 8 year old boy? My friend goes to school at a real college for free and gets extra money every quarter for books and thousands of dollars that he can spend on whatever he wants? But he does not do the work online, he drives to a branch here in columbus ohio? He has got 2 seperate checks for $3100 a piece plus book money every 2 or 3 months? He gets about $600 for books every 2 months and the books are only about $300? he keeps the rest of the money. And he does not have to pay it back until school is done. Can i get the same help and schooling he does if i work from my computer at home? And if so, could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

dknol answers:

The only thing i know of is to fill out your fasfa form at www.fasfa.ed.gov. Its a free application. The problem i have run into is that they say that i make too much money, even though i am unemployed at the time. Maybe for you it will be ok, if you have full custody and are a single father i would think you should be able to get about a full ride.

Maria asks…

Is there any real online jobs?

Ok so i have no job. I have been looking and looking for one. And where i live. There just is no jobs for people. And i need money every month to pay bills and stuff. So is there really a way i can work online from home for free. I don’t pay for any jobs i do. So that is out of the question. Im looking for something that is legit. Nothing like the survey sites please none of those. Im looking for legit online jobs only. That i actually get paid every month from.

dknol answers:

What you should do first is to decide if you are

simply looking for an hourly rate type job or if you are look’ng for more of an opportunity for additional income such as

what you would make in your own business being your own boss from home

dknol answers:

I used your serial number to look up your laptop. You need to re-install the sound drivers that came with your laptop. The fact that your system is calling it “Multimedia Audio Controller” means it doesn’t have the drivers properly installed.

Go to:

http://support.packardbell.com/global/item/?sn=746400040238&g=2000

Click on the “Drivers” tab and select sound drivers. Download this:

Realtek ALC655 Audio drivers

Install those drivers and your sound should work again.

Here is a direct link to the .exe package:

Donald asks…

HELP!! Why does my laptop turn on auto while shut and have blue screen of death?

My laptop, while closed shut, will automatically turn/log on (come out of hibernation). While it is closed!! I can tell because the fan starts up and I can hear the logged on sound. It has just recently started to do this.

Another thing that has been happening to my computer is the blue screen of death. It usually happens around the same time (such as when I first start up or restart the computer, just after it says “welcome”).

I scanned my computer for viruses and it didn’t find anything (even though it might have missed something). I then freed up a lot of disc space and deleted unwanted programs, etc. I also haven’t installed any new hardware so it can’t be that.

What should I do? I tried to do computer defragmentation and system restore but it wouldn’t let me do either for some reason. The only reason why I think I wasn’t able to do the former was because I didn’t have enough disk space (which I think it requires a certain amount of in order to work). I don’t know why the latter doesn’t work.

Should I reformat my computer? Or are their other alternatives? I really can’t afford a new laptop right now, and I do a lot of digital art on the computer so I need my computer!!

Please help!!!!

I have a Dell laptop with Windows xp. I have had it for around three years and need to buy a new battery (since mine has officially died).
I have also saved all my important files and data (just in case).

dknol answers:

A computer’s registry is one big database that has numerous files, options, and settings. These settings and options keep changing with every second of you using your PC and can lead to the damage of some of these settings. This causes errors to show up and the computer to have a BSOD. Registry cleaners http://cleanup-comuter-run-perfectly.com software scan the computer’s errors and matches all files and settings with the applications that use them. If it identifies any file or setting to be damaged, missing, or corrupted, it provides you with an updated list of the same and also repairs these errors. Therefore, if your computer keeps crashing and need to fix blue screen of death a good registry cleaner is all you need. Your computer can also cause problems because of redundant files in its registry. Registry cleaners identify all these redundant and junk files that were left over during the uninstalling process of hardware of software and delete them. This makes sure that the “computer keeps having the BSOD” issue is taken care of.

I have a Dell laptop with Windows xp. I have had it for around three years and need to buy a new battery (since mine has officially died).
I have also saved all my important files and data (just in case).

dknol answers:

A computer’s registry is one big database that has numerous files, options, and settings. These settings and options keep changing with every second of you using your PC and can lead to the damage of some of these settings. This causes errors to show up and the computer to have a BSOD. Registry cleaners http://cleanup-comuter-run-perfectly.com software scan the computer’s errors and matches all files and settings with the applications that use them. If it identifies any file or setting to be damaged, missing, or corrupted, it provides you with an updated list of the same and also repairs these errors. Therefore, if your computer keeps crashing and need to fix blue screen of death a good registry cleaner is all you need. Your computer can also cause problems because of redundant files in its registry. Registry cleaners identify all these redundant and junk files that were left over during the uninstalling process of hardware of software and delete them. This makes sure that the “computer keeps having the BSOD” issue is taken care of.

I’m using DirectX 11

GTA: SA System Requirements:

256MB of RAM

What I mean by sluggish is that the game runs very slowly. Its like the game’s on slow-motion.
How do I regain normal speed? I can’t play the game like this.

Thank you.
@So Simple: But my graphics memory is way bigger than the 64 MB minimum.

dknol answers:

Your Config is low…u will need a dedicated graphic card if u want to play properly…..but still u can improve your game play or fps of the game if u can just change your video settings for the game…..U can decrease the resolution of the game to least setting and also decrease all the video settings for the game …then the game will run properly but the game wouldn’t look so appealing….Happy Gaming

Your Questions About Health And Fitness Articles

Lisa asks…

Optimism and health? Fact or fiction?

Ideas about the associations of personality and health are not new, but have their roots in the bodily humors of ancient Greece.

While the exact mechanism of how personality acts as a risk factor for early death or poorer health is unclear, Maruto says it likely has to do with the fact that pessimists have an increased chance for future problems with their physical health, career achievements, and emotional stress particularly depression.

“Yet another possibility could be more directly biological, like changes in the immune system,” he adds.

Researchers found that pessimists scored below the national average on physical functioning, bodily pain, perception of general health, vitality, mental health, and social functioning.

Besides looking at the world through rosier-colored glasses, living a long and healthy life may also mean paying attention to friends and family.

The rest is here.

http://ca.lifestyle.yahoo.com/health-fitness/articles/archive/50plus/9593

The question is: Is this true or false?

dknol answers:

I believe that is very true, but also other factors are involved…are we wallowing in guilt or pity..do we grieve over lost loved ones…how about decisions in our life we have made and chose not to make the right choice…we can see the positive or negative in any situation..the secret is learning to let go…the mistakes, the burdens, the regrets..we have to trust that God is in control and He knows which road we should take..Just let go and learn to be happy..no matter the outcome…

Ruth asks…

Diet and Fitness on Yahoo?

http://ca.lifestyle.yahoo.com/health-fitness/articles/diet/rogers-chatelaine/the-trim-tummy-meal-plan-2009-08-31

So, if I eat these foods and maintain a healthy diet, I can have a flatter stomach?
Thanks for the answers. I’m not fat. Just trying to eat healthier.

dknol answers:

Actually, The information on Health on that article is terrible to be honest.
I’ll paste the first meal and criticize and comment, based on my knowledge.

2 rice cakes< — processed crap with carbs/sugar. Little or no quality fats in it. Humans didn't evolve from processed rice snack cakes.

2 Tbsp almond butter<– almond butter is awesome! Highly recommended.

1 cup orange juice<—- sugar over-kill. Orange juice from the store has little or no nutritional value, as it has been pasteurized and is pure sugar, plain and simple. Besides protein shakes or raw, whole full fat milk, only water should be consumed. Don't drink calories!

1 cup milk or fortified soy milk<— Soy is garbage. It is not a health food. Hell, it isn't even a food. They use hexane (if you don't know what it is, I suggest you look it up..) to extract the soy from the beans..it's terrible for humans and the environment.

1 banana<– bananas are fine after a workout, make sure they are organic.

1 cup yogurt or soy-based yogurt<– *sigh* soy based yogurt is highly processed and again, not a health food. Eat full-fat, raw organic yogurt. It's Pre-biotics will aid with digestive health. Make sure it is sugar free and contains no fruit. If you MUST have it sweet, put some stevia in it.

1 egg-salad pita wrap<– Wraps aren't that healthy. Just eat the eggs by itself, and substitute the wrap bread with a sweet potato.

1 whole wheat pita bread- Bread is highly processed, try sweet potatoes or low-glycemic index products like organic brown rice and flax.

1 cup baby spinach<– spinach rocks! Make sure it is organic. Have some olive oil (cold pressed extra virgin is the only good kind)

1 hardboiled egg, sliced <– eggs are good,make sure they are over easy with runny yolks. Don't worry about the cholesterol in eggs,dietary cholesterol isn't bound to blood cholesterol

½ cup red pepper, sliced<– red peppers are fine,but cruciferous veggies are better (kale,spinach,cauliflower,broccoli)

½ cup mushrooms, sliced <– mushrooms are fine,make sure they are organic.

10 baby carrots<— baby carrots are crap, they are sprayed with orange dye to make they appear fresh.

1 cup milk or soymilk<— again, no soy.Drink milk.Make sure it is pasteurized. And if you're lactose intolerant, drink raw milk.The lactase enzyme in the milk will ensure that the lactose is broken down properly due to the phosphatase calcium absorption in your stomach.

Joseph asks…

Does this change your mind about the health benefits of soya products?

According to this article, North American soya is genetically altered & UNFERMENTED and is REALLY BAD for your health and it’s in almost EVERYTHING.

Unfermented soy products, such as soy milk, tofu, soy burgers, soy nuts, soy formula, soy chips and soy ice cream – contain high levels of phytic acid or phytates which block the absorption of essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, and especially zinc in the intestinal tract. Unfermented soy also contains trypsin inhibitors and hemaglutinin that stunt human growth.

Unfermented soy may be linked to reduced male fertility, increased cancer risk, damaged brain function, developmental abnormalities in infants, and early onset of puberty.

Soya has high amounts of estrogen in it and it’s in BABY FORMULA too.

Comments?
Oh and it’s also fed to pigs, cows, chickens, etc. and also in your cat and dog food!
Agreed old time re the fermented and why I didn’t mention it is that it’s not really available in North America. It takes months to ferment it and you know darned well they are not going to bother doing that being as no one is even aware of the risks nor takes them seriously.

dknol answers:

I knew that that’s why I stayed away from any soy products.

Where is the best place to find current material for writing magazine articles on fitness and nutrition?

I am starting up a subscription based online personal training business. I want to offer my members valuable resources, such as current articles and information about health, nutrition, and fitness. I need help finding resources to write these articles. Also, I would like to know how to find freelance writers that would like to contribute to this sort of thing to get their name out there.
