Alright..Well, I just installed Windows XP Pro Corp edition on my brother's computer (Dell). Ever since I put the new O.S. in the sound doesn't work. After doing some searching it says there is no "Audio Device." Even when I try to go to Volume Control the message pops up. Please help!

My old spark plugs/wires went out not too long ago. I took it to a shop and they put generic brand plugs/wires into my car. I've always had the feeling my car wasn't running to its full potential with the mods that I have and wondering if this could be the cause of it. I see most people use...

I have stock GSX rims right now; they weigh about 25lbs.If I were to go to Rota Slipstreams 16" that weigh about 13lbs.Would that make a considerable amount of difference in acceleration?
Hey guys.. I have some GSX rims right now. I want to paint it black w/ a polished lip. What do you guys use to paint your rims with and what are the steps of prep? Thanks.
16x7" Rota Slipstreams 5x114.3. Tire size is 205/55/16 offset is 45mm.Will it rub?My car was lowered on 225/40/18s. Would I have to raise the car back up?
The windshield wipers on my 2g are stuck in a halfway up position. Instead of resting at the bottom of the windshield like they are supposed too they are like halfway up my windshield. I tried pulling on it a bit but it doesn't go anywhere. Anyone know how to fix this?
Are these an easy find at local auto parts store? I've called Kragens and Autozone and they don't carry them.I ask for the NGK BPR7ES sparkplugs but they insist I tell them what kind of car I have. Instead of telling me if they have the spark plugs in they go on to tell me what kind of plugs...
Hey guys.. Got a question.I have to install Windows ME on my laptop. I've already made a backup of the existing hard drive using iOmega. Now how would I go about reinstalling Windows to have a clean slate? Please help, thanks/
Good or bad? Benefits? Good way to build credit?I'm only 18 and I'd like to buy a brand new car w/o having my parents cosign. Since I've only made 4 car payments and don't have too much credit my friend suggested getting a credit card. Will this help me? Alot of people have told me they are...
I'm tired of my rims. I need a new look.I've been searching all over for some nice deep dish (lipped) rims. I've seen a few cars w/ them and it looks SICK. Anyways, help me out please!
Well, I seem to be having this problem alittle more than often now. Here's the scenario.Encountered a Civic hatch.... I should beat it, right? Not.First gear shifted at 6800rpm. Began to pull on him.
Second gear shifted at almost redline.However when I shift into third I watch the...
Well, my friend ships off to Japan next week so it's really got me thinking. I've been to Korea and the Philippines but I really want to go to Japan badly. This seems like the only way and hell maybe I can bring a Skyline back to the states with me after a while. So I've decided to see a...
Well, it's not _that_ bad. I just have light swirls and scratches everywhere on my exterior paint. I've tried different waxes and fillers but nothing seems to get rid of them. And when I do wax my car they're even more noticeable. How do you guys keep your paint looking good?
I'm looking for some 17 or 18 wheels that aren't too heavy.I've got the MR7s right now and they are wayyyy to heavy. Preferably black w/ machined lip or anything that you think would look good on a red 2g.
Quick question. Several months ago I had my spark plugs and wires replaced by a shop but they put a generic-type brand on. I'm wondering if this is the reason my car isn't as fast as I think it should be and why I lose to cars I should be walking.Anyone think NGK BPR7ES w/ Magnacore wires...
So far I've got :Ported Small16G
Injen Short Ram Intake
Apexi N1 Catback Exhaust
1st gen blow off valve (uncrushed)
Manual boost controller
Boost guage
Air/fuel ratio guageNow, I don't really know what to get next, and I know mods should be installed in a certain order. Anyways...
Last week I dropped my car about 2 inches all around. Put some 18" Gunmetal Motegi MR7's on it. I've had some mixed opinions about the gunmetal with red. Tell me what you think.
Oh My God. This is getting ridiculous...Whenever I reboot my computer I have 10 error popups that come up saying "missing shortcut" or "has caused an error." I'm getting sick of all this crap.Is there anyway I can just completely reinstall Windows and start from scratch again? This has...
Alright.. Here's the scoop.I was driving on the freeway when outta' the blue I start hearing and feeling this extremely loud banging from underneath my car. It was a constant noise so I thought it'd be a flat tires or bent rim. Went out and took a look at it and the rims/tires are fine. The...
Okay. Just got my car lowered today. The guy dropped it 1.5" and gave 1 degree camber he said. Now whenever I go on an on/off ramp or something at like 30mph the front tires start screeching like crazy! Like hella loud. Anyone know what coul dbe wrong?
This definitely belongs in the Newbie Forum but I need to know..Just bought some 18" Motegi Mr7s (18x7.5 + 45mm offset) and they didn't come with any lugs. The bolt pattern is 5x100 and 5x114.3. What size tuner lugs would be okay?Would the Motegi Tuner Lugs ( 20 piece set and thread...
My interior consists of that gray cloth material on the seats and the door panels. It looks kinda weird, with some sort of strange design on it and I'm not feeling it at all. I was wondering if anyone has totally changed their interior?I want to switch out the dash, steering wheel...
I'm going to be lowering my Eclipse Gs-T 2 inches lower than stock.. I will be using Skunk2 Coilovers and the stock shocks and stock wheels. Now, do I need a camber kit to lower it 2 inches or is it unnecessary?If so.. Would a 1.5-3.0 Extreme Front Camber Kit for front and up to 3.0 rear...
Just bought some Skunk2 Coilovers. What is my next step in lowering my car? Someone said to get a camber kit or else it'll kill my tires. Where did you guys get your kits from? I want to spend around 150-200 total on both Front and Rear Camber Kits.Also, I don't have enough cash to get rims...
Y'know what.. I'm sick of people saying I drive a chick car. Sure, maybe it being red makes it alittle worse but the ECLIPSE IS NOT A CHICK'S CAR. A muffstang is a chick's car because 90% of the people driving them are female!I'm fed up with this. Has anyone else been told their Eclipse was...
Plannin on getting back to fixin my car up...I need some professional opinions here... I need some shocks / springs / wheels ...What do you guys reccommend? I don't need top of the line stuff.. Best bang for the buck! Thanks.
