Looking at the specs, the CS4245 should be able to deliver a high quality output, but implementation specifics or amplification might be causing problems.

That is completely true, but seeing that most such clowns don't really generate their own reports, but merely recycle what they see elsewhere, I would not ignore something just because it also appears on the website of such a clown. That's kind of the point I'm trying to make, not that you should …

Looking to Infowars for information is like going to Smith & Wesson for health care. I've had enough experience with both local and global media to know that going to "mainstream" or "official" media sources is not any better. Everyone has an agenda, and everyone pushes their agenda first, reports …

Thanks for the answers! I am trying the Xonar DG on Linux and it sounds quiet powerful and nice even if maybe not time correct. I will try also the Audigy and let you know. The Xonar range is based on the CMI8738 - a mediocre chipset in my opinion. Output is flat and muffled, muddy bass and cut-off …

I of course remember SimCity, Simcity 2000 and Civilization 1 and 2, some Sierra adventures (Larry, Kings Quest, Police Quest) and even a kind of Strip Poker but you already know what I mean :lol: First of all, all of these minorities have their (proper :blush:) DOS versions. Before Windows 95, not …

If longer paths is all you need, why no switching to Linux? Ubuntu Server will run like a charm, esp if you do not run Xs there. For this purpose, FreeBSD based FreeNAS is what you want. Pre-packaged, appliance type install. Robust disk storage. Good performance. If you want more features, go for …

Yes, they didn't give enough people a reason to vote for her. For many, there wasn't a reason to vote for her. For many others, they apparently didn't even try. As a result, millions of people stayed home and she lost.

Well, I'm pretty sure the Won servers are long since gone, but other games have been patched to redirect to different game matching services. I want to know if this is an option with Homeworld.

Remember that Trump was harping on about Obama's parentage and ineligibility to be president for years. So, they're only looking to him for their example.

Not an issue since the introduction of ATA2/EIDE, apparently. http://www.pcguide.com/ref/hdd/if/ide/confTiming-c.html However, the channel is still shared. One device has to clear the channel before the next can transfer data or a command.

The only problem is the two devices will be using shared bus resources, so copying from optical drive to zip disk will be potentially bottlenecked.

Enermax can be quality. They are great units of high build quality but the caps are shit like almost everything else from the period, they often have a very strong +5v rail while still have good +12v. Nice heavy units with good cooling. Every model is different. Enermax does have some models with …
