Adjusting sound

Thanks. I did finally find the application for my onboard sound. It's
buried.
First time in three years of owning this system (custom built for me, an
i7-930
CPU, ASUS motherboard, Windows 7 Professional 64 bit and 12Gb memory, plus
2-1/2
Tb storage) that I ever saw the application for the sound. I just stumbled
on it
last night trying to figure out why I wasn't getting much volume. I fixed
that
but the sound card is on it's way and I'm going to give it a try.
Is it listed in Device Manager?
Curious.

I have about eleven copies of this post - a very curious buffalo indeed

Oh my, a serial poster :-( I've heard of them on the news.

My old dial-up ISP used to have real connection problems, and if I posted at
just the right (wrong) time, I'd see this effect. Although I think the most
I ever saw was 4 or 5, never this many :)

A herd of Buffaloes, I'd say.

I agree with SC Tom that it's an artifact of a system error somewhere in
the chain. All the posts seem to have the same time to the second[1];
even Buffalo isn't that quick on the trigger.

[1] But I only looked at the first and last posts :)

I'm running WIndows 7 Professional, 64 bit. I'm using the onboard sound from the
motherboard instead of a sound card. Is there a way I haven't found yet to
adjust bass and treble when playing music? I know I can fool around with the
equaliztion on Winamp, but I'm looking for a simple bass/treble adjustment.
Thanks.
I'm using Windows 7 in my Asus G75 laptop. In the Control Panel there is
an audio controller titled VIA Audio Deck. Where this came from I don't
know. It may have been supplied by Asus or it may be part of the Windows
7 system that I hadn't noticed before. VIA Audio Deck has controls that
allows for setting base and treble controls as well as environmental
sound effect controls. Controls can be set for speakers or earphones,
stereo or surround sound. I has presets and one can make presets.

Check to see if you have VIA Audio Deck and if you have, adjust the
base/treble sound according to your taste.

Since it's a laptop I guess it came with Windows pre-installed and
configured, just about ready to go. I'm pretty sure the VIA Audio Deck
works with a VIA chip integrated on this ASUS laptop motherboard, it was
installed by the OEM (Asus in your case).

Every onboard and some outboard sound devices should have such application
to be able to get all the "Bells and Whistles" the device can achieve. On
some system, you might need to download and install the application
yourself if it doesn't come on a CD or DVD. Personnally, I always download
the latest version of the drivers and applications from the manufacturer
even with brand new stuff with included CD.

Thanks for the info.

I did a "Bing" search for VIA Audio Deck and was surprised at the high
number of sites that were listed dealing with this audio deck for
Windows 7. There were sites discussing audio deck and there were
download sites where the VIA Audio Deck driver can be downloaded. I'm
sure glad the driver came with my laptop.
