    What soundcard is it?
    Is it possible to reset it to default firmware?

    Terratec Aureon Firewire 7.1.
    Nope. It's gotta be replaced by the dealer or sent back to the manufacturer.

    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    No I haven't.

    Seems like the curse finally got out of it and is roaming the boards freely.


    edit:it's attacking my already poor spelling ablity.

    It was only a matter of time

    HardwareWorld, and the people who post there, should be quarantined.

    I aspire to one day go into HardwareWorld and make a valid and necessary contribution to a discussion.


    I think my best effort so far is:-

    "Isn't it ironic how too much heat causes computers to freeze".

    Don't, I beg of you. You'd start experiencing hardware failures all over the place.
    The hardwareworld gnomes would run amok once again.

    Yeah, SnnY knows loads about PCs - and is a decent chap - but his penchant for posting there has cursed not only his but also his entire family's computers. They're always breaking.

    Dave posts there all the time () and the last I checked - he had to run his PC without a case 'cause it kept overheating. Mulder was doing a computer course in college (I think) yet he posted there and had all manner of problems.

    People who post there more than anywhere else - like VB and rossco - are shunned by Canadian women folk

    I posted there once, ages ago, when the HD of the PC I was making for my sister's kids wasn't recognised by the OS. However, I thought it was more software related so I think I got away with it

    And why, oh why, does clocker have to change parts of Sprocket all the time? Because he likes to improve his "rig" by adding more and more complicated (and expensive) pieces of hardware, you say? No, I don't think so.
