I agree, isn't one of the purposes of a forum to create debates anyway?

You should have saved the money and bought an Etch A Sketch instead ;p

I disagree with you disagreeing with him agreeing with me.

I agree with your dessison to disagree but have to disagree on your disagreeing

You should have saved the money and bought an Etch A Sketch instead ;p

NOW YOU TELL ME!

I agree with your dessison to disagree but have to disagree on your disagreeing

I disagree with you agreeing on my "dessison" to disagree.. and I disagree on your disagreeing on my disagreeing.

Okay this is confusing.

This is a disagreeable thread. Only had a look at it since it popped up in popcorn.

You never listen to advice anyway as you are always disagreeing with everything any one agrees with ;p

Well least I have space to store more porn.

See, you should have asked, I have friends in the "business" could have sorted you out. Just ask Hippy about his Midget collection ;p

why did I read that back in a Scottish accent ;p

Mike I haven't forgotten but the stuff you wanted is a bit harder to come by ;p

Yeah he always wants asian schoolgirls apparently.

Does hippy have a thing for midgets because they take smaller photos and use less space so he can store more porn?

I..err.. um...

YES! FUCKING YES! This one of the most annoying fucking things I've come across - I use this same station and I can have headphones plugged into the rear jack, headphones plugged into the front and hear sound coming from separate programmes on both AND hear a third set of audio coming from the front inbuilt speakers. What the fuck is that about?

Weirder still - say I'm using... Adobe Premiere (for example) - when I'm capturing video I can hear the sound on the capture window playing through the rear headphone jack but not the front. Then, when I'm just playing video within premiere on the timeline from a sequence, I cant hear through headphones from the rear or front jack but only through the inbuilt speakers.

This is not cool.

BAM.. it's just a driver thing. Since I installed Win7 onto an additional 10,000rpm drive I didn't have all the HP shite installed.

Install the included RealTek audio drivers and the front headphone port works.

As long as I can access 4chan and animal stacking websites, I don't mind what brand my laptop is.
