How to wire Surround sound speakers to pc and xbox 360 and tv?

Ive just received a new surround sound speaker system that is quite old but very good quality, It has a rca (red and white) to input my xbox 360, tv and pc. Is there a way to connect them all to the same system? What will i need? Thankyou very muchHow to wire Surround sound speakers to pc and xbox 360 and tv?
The only way is connect your XBox and TV to a surround receiver and use its input selector. Buying an input selector alone wont do you any good if it doesnt have an amp to power the speakers.





I have my HDTV, PS2, PS3, DVD, satelite box, DVR and xBox all running thru my Onkyo, and works awesome.





So if you dont have a surround receiver, then you will need to get one. Good luck.How to wire Surround sound speakers to pc and xbox 360 and tv?
If it only has one set of RCA jacks, then you will need an audio signal selector. They range from about $20 to $55. http://shop1.frys.com/product/3067889?si鈥?/a>

How can I connect to a Client PC without disturbing their work?

How can I connect to a Client PC while the user is logged in? I don't want to disturb their work, Just check distribution versions and run a couple tests for updating purposes.How can I connect to a Client PC without disturbing their work?
if u remote in, it will interrupt their work. What you want to use, if all you want to know is updates and etc, is called MBSA. Microsoft Base Systems Analysis tool. You run that over the network to look for vulnerabilities and etc.





This all comes into play if you have a WSUS setup as well. while a SMS is better and can do more, an WSUS is a good thing to have so you dont need to kick anyone off their computer. Plus you can send out updates to whomever, whenever you wish. It makes life as an administrator easier.

  • How can I make my custom built pc's fans stop operating when I want it to sleep or hibernate?

    I'm a first time HTPC builder and everything work great except for the fact I cannot make the PC sleep or hibernate without the fans running at full speed. The hard drive shuts down but the CPU fan runs as fast and noisy as ever.How can I make my custom built pc's fans stop operating when I want it to sleep or hibernate?

    How would i go about having a PC with a wired connection, but also have a wireless connection with one modem?

    I have one computer, and will be getting a wireless router soon for my laptop. Is it possible to keep the PC connected through a wire, but also have a wireless connection without the use of a router?How would i go about having a PC with a wired connection, but also have a wireless connection with one modem?
    Without the router, no. You need a router to connect 2 computers to 1 modem, and a wireless router (or access point) to connect wirelessly. Unless your provider provides wireless service that you can access. (Mine does, but in publicly-used areas. I can't get a signal from my house, but I can from my office in an industrial park.)How would i go about having a PC with a wired connection, but also have a wireless connection with one modem?
    without a router, no.





    You will need the wireless router to have both computers accessing at the same time.
    you need a wireles router, they come with 4 conections for wire plus wireless

    How do I share files from my pc to my mac via an ethernet connection?

    We have our files set up in the shared folder of the pc with the share to the network option checked, but we don't know what to do on the mac end to get them over. Can anyone explain this to us using the ';Dummies'; version ; - ) Thanks!How do I share files from my pc to my mac via an ethernet connection?
    Click the Finder icon (bottom left of Mac screen, on the Dock.


    In the sidebar of the Finder window that has just opened, under the Shared section, click the PC's name.


    Double-click the Shared Docs or similar icon to open it.





    That's it!





    If the PC's not showing up, the computers are probably not on the same network or not networked properly.





    If the PC is not listed under Shared or there is no shared folder listed, then you have not correctly enabled sharing of that folder.

    The free version of this is very nice, and I use it often. It even works through firewalls.





    Just download the Control software on the computer you are using to do the controlling, then download the client software on the computer you are going to control. Create your usernames and passwords on your login accounts and bingo. you're in.

    The built-in media player should work - but it obviously doesn't for you. I'd try TCPMP (it's a video player - but has excellent music player facilities). There's also Pocket Music - there's a freeware version and also a pay-bundle. The freeware version is below also

    How can I make my PC recognize a non integrated graphics card?

    I got a really nasty virus and had to reformat. Not a big deal I keep stuff backed up on my external. After reformatting however the PC is only recognizing the invidia integrated Graphics card not the Radeon 9800 that is installed in the PCI slot. How do I make the PC recognize the graphics card in the PCI slot? I dowloaded and tried to install the ATI Drivers but that did not help.How can I make my PC recognize a non integrated graphics card?
    Check the graphic settings in the bios.How can I make my PC recognize a non integrated graphics card?
    K the instant your pc boots up press f2 or delete or whatever it tells you to access your bios.


    Once you get into the bios, look around, and try to find the graphics tab. and it should let you choose between the two. Fiddle around, and if you do anything that might not have been good, go back to defaults. Be careful what you do though, especially with the cpu clocking because you might mess something up.

    How well do graphics intensive PC games play on a Macintosh?

    Hi all! I understand that Mac has a Windows shell program that allows PC games to be played on a Mac. Does anyone have any experience playing some of the upper end PC games in this way on a Mac? I am looking to buy a computer, would like to purchase a Mac but I am a HUGE gaming fan and the Mac just doesn't cut it when it comes to gaming choices....





    Thanks!How well do graphics intensive PC games play on a Macintosh?
    I'd stay on the PC for gaming. You'll have to emulate the PC on the mac, so you'll be running the emulator under the game. It will be a double hit on your processor to run the game.How well do graphics intensive PC games play on a Macintosh?
    I dont actually play any games on a Mac but from what i hear the new Macs can handle up to about 30-45fps on games and not show the slightest lag or blur or loss in detail. But appartly even the the Nvidia 9600M GT can not handle games at up to 60 fps or alot of other games at the highest setting. I personally hate playing games on PC or Mac and stick just with my PS3 and XBOX 360 and about to buy a iMac which i will not use for any gaming maybe except Sims 3.
    Macs can run windows native now, not with a shell- it's called Boot Camp. On my iMac from 2006 I can run (on low settings, mind you):





    Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare


    Crysis


    Mass Effect


    Fallout 3


    Bioshock


    (Im sure there's others, but those are the big titles)





    The only game I have NOT been able to run is GTA IV.

  • How to transfer songs from one iTunes library to another on a PC?

    I need to transfer songs from the iTunes library on my old PC to the iTunes library on my new PC laptop. How can I do that?How to transfer songs from one iTunes library to another on a PC?
    What I did was that I transferred all of my all songs/videos onto a separate hard drive or memory stick (with a lot of memory) and connected it to the new computer. Then I just uploaded them.





    The amount of songs you have determines the time needed to fully transfer it. For me, it took 16 hours because I had 1000+ songs and 30+ videos. I am almost sure that there is another way to do it, but this was probably the simplest way I could think of.

    How much memory should I have on a pc for Photoshop?

    I'm going to be entering college this autumn and am planning to buy a laptop. I'm going to be in the art field so I'm probably going to have to run programs like photoshop.





    I'm going to get a PC and was wondering how much memory I would need to run programs like photoshop without the computer crashing and lagging.How much memory should I have on a pc for Photoshop?
    Get 4GB


    You will need 2GB to run Vista (or Windows 7) well.


    The extra RAM will be very helpful for using apps like photoshop.





    If you are getting a 32bit OS then there is no point going above 4GB because only a 64bit OS can handle over 4GB.





    Make sure you get a decent graphics chip.


    ATi and NVidia make the only graphics chips worth having.





    DO NOT GET A LAPTOP WITH INTEL EXPRESS GRAPHICS CHIP.

    I would use the Get Connected wizard in PC Suite or go to nokiausa.com and find the appropriate driver for your data cable. Hope that helps :)


    P.S if you have a bluetooth adapter on your PC you might try connecting your phone that way but it has the potential to be slower to connect to the internet with.
    Even if your phone itself has internet, you usually specifically need an additional cost data plan to be able to access the internet through your phone from laptop or other PC.





    But if your software does not detect the phone, maybe you have software issues. Did you install the software first ';before'; first connecting the phone?





    Even when I did not have a data plan on my phone, I was able to connect Bluetooth to my phone and make it dial, but Verizon blocked any attempted data connection, even old fashioned dial up networking.

    Hi curiousnktown,





    You need to get Motorola Phone Tools. It's a nifty program you put on your computer and you can connect to your phone and do all kinds of neat stuff.





    The cheapest and fastest way to get it is to buy it on eBay. You can get it for less then $5.00 and then download it so there is no shipping cost.





    For current eBay listings go to eBay and do a search for ';Motorola Phone Tools';. Look at the ones that offer digital delivery. I have seen it as cheap as $1.95





    Once you have the software Motorola updates it free forever.
