[CGUYS] Strange sound problem -

2007-07-11 Thread tom.chambers

Listmembers:
  I recently bought a refurbished machine .1 gig CPU , 
512 meg ram , AC'97

soundcard , Win 2000.
   When I stream audio with Realplayer the sound runs 
too fast  ; that  is , it

sounds like a 78 RPM  record  running at about  82 RPM.
  Does anyone know why this might be , or how it 
might be corrected ?
   The machine doesn't have any other problems that 
I've noticed .

Thanks in advance ,
Tom 
Chambers

[CGUYS] Wireless in the UK ?

2007-09-02 Thread tom.chambers

Listmembers -
   When I last spent much time in the UK (1997 ) I had to  
search out  internet cafes  or rare connections in private
homes to get online.  Are there wireless ISPs now who cover the UK , and 
which a tourist can buy into for a month

at a time or so ?
 Thanks for any ideas or advice ,

   When I play a CD or streaming audio my sound quality is 
good . If I download an ebook or copy a CD to Win Media
Library the playback sound is scratchy and muffled . Maybe I need to 
adjust a playback setting which I haven't been able to

locate so far ?
  Thanks for any advice ,
