Hey everyone,
So I have a Dell laptop about 6 months old...I wanted to tell you its "stats" but i just noticed when I went into "System" it comes up saying Processor: Not Available nad RAM: Not Available. I know I have at least a 2gig dual core...and I have 2 gigs of RAM. Not sure why it can't recognize it...Also ever since I've had the computer I've been unable to load a webpage AND play an MP3 without the sound cracking and popping. I have to turn off my wireless internet just to play the sound or video file without it skipping and crackling...I think a computer with my speed should be able to handle two easy things...
Anyway my newest and most frustrating problem is that when I tried to use "voice" on yahoo messenger it said I didn't have a sound card, which obviously I do. When I load a video in VLC media player I can see the picture but there is no sound. When I play an MP3 in winamp, winamp hardly ever opens anymore, but when it does it doesn't play and therefore there's no sound. However I can hear the sound on youtube videos and the dings of my computer's noises.
With some things I'm VERY computer literate...and in other things I'm fairly new. And this whole thing is just driving me crazy. I think my ongoing problems are Vista and not Dell related, but who knows.
Can anyone help me sort out my audio issue? (And if you've got any tips on why my supposedly fast computer can't do two things at once...that would be amazing too!!!!)
Thanks!
