I have strange problem. I have a home built desktop I use for a small office. It works really well has a gigabite board with dual processors and is running xp pro. The other day it started running videos at fast forward. Very odd. Maybe someone clicked something they wasn`t supposed to? It does it both on internet explorer and google chrome so its not the browser. What do you think? Is it just flash (internet) videos? Yes it is the internet videos. I have not tried any dvds.Update
I uninstalled the adobe flash player and reinstalled it and it still does it. Also you can not HEAR SOUND from the streaming radio sties... I booted the system from the xp pro disk about 6 months ago. At the time it worked fine. There has been some dispatch programs INSTALLED but it did not seem to start having problems untill recently. I am a novice that has been building my own for 6 or 7 years sometimes think I should give up but the oem stuff isnt much better... Wow stumped the gurus? Did not think that was possible. Well thanks for trying maybe I will look into the sound drivers.Well I had time to play with it today and found that the audio and video drivers were uninstalled. Thats strange they were there before. I grabed my drivers cd and after a couple of trys got them all reloaded. But audio still does not work at all and there is no volume control at the bottom of the screen. When I go back to the hardware page there is a ? on the audio device on HIGH defifnition audio bus. I went into windows update and it downloaded a audiodriver but still nothing. Maybe my onboard sound died? i had a similar thing when i tried to play Postal 2 (not on any other game)
it just ran it on a fast-forwarded speed. very strange. i can't help you though, sorry, i myself had to reinstall windows to make it run properly Ok I know there is a easy answer to this but... How do I save this to a text file without retyping it? Hmm Am I going crazy or just senile? Someone had posted a text document that I was supposed to copy to my reg but now it is gone. Was that a virus or something that was deleted?
Very confused....Reg files need to be right clicked and select merge....
No copy/paste involved.Hi Frige it was me. I deleted the message because I'm worried you may do it wrong and screw your COMPUTER up. Your not going mad.Never post reg fixes without proper instructions on how to safely backup the Registry...Hence Patio that I deleted my own message...
