Soundcards..... by
Bryan Anderson
I only use the audio on the PC to listen to music while working. I
very, very rarely use it for movies, so surround sound and so on is

so,...

Shaky monitor picture by
Jason
I have a 17" Sony G200 monitor hooked to a Dell Dimension 4100 and today the
picture has a horizontal shake to it. How can I tell if the problem is in
the monitor or the video card? I only have this one PC here so I can't hook
the monitor to a different box. Thanks for any suggestions.

Too many USB cards? by
Mike Walsh
I don't know if there is a limit to how many USB ports you can have. More likely the problem is an IRQ conflict. Disable the USB1 ports in the BIOS and see if you can install the USB2 card.
