Headphone hookup question

Thanks for the replys. I had the sennheiser headphone hooked up to the cable box and they worked great. I could turn up the volume on the headphones for me and it wouldn't be to loud for the rest of the room, but they wouldn't work with this setup for watching a DVD since the cable box wasn't...

Headphone hookup question

I have a home theater set up. Cable to cable box, HDMI out to Sony DH800 receiver and HDMI out to TV. Everything feeds in/out of the receiver. Is there a way to hookup headphones to the back of the receiver? Thanks in advance.

OK here is the latest. I reloaded everything and downloaded all updates last evening except the video drivers and haven't had an error yet. It has the 915gm,910 gml express chipset. Once I download the drivers, and I'm assuming that it will start having problems, how can I tell if its the...

BSOD help

The history on this computer is it belongs to a friend. Dell said it was the HDD and sent him another one but its still getting the BSOD randomly. I reformatted it with a fresh install of XP but am still getting blue screen every once in awhile. I am thinking it is a hardware problem. I...

Reboot loop on Dell

For those following this thread, here is the latest. I ran diagnostics on the drive and got a error code 7. I went ahead and replaced the hard drive and reloaded everything so the computer is up and running. I tried hooking the old hard drive to another computer as a second drive with a USB...

Reboot loop on Dell

The board was replaced by Dell a couple of years ago for the cap issue. I haven't looked but I am thinking if it is a hardware issue, just reloading operating system wouldn't fix it. I will look when I get a chance. I have a USB back up drive that I can swap the drive with. I will run a scan on...

Reboot loop on Dell

I can't get to the computer for a couple of days but I will give this a shot. How do you turn off the logo in the BIOS? Don't think I have seen that option.

Reboot loop on Dell

I have a Dell SX270. About two months ago when you started it up, it would get to the Dell logo and reboot continually. Could not go to safe mode or go back to old restore point. So I reformated it and reloaded XP. It just started doing it again. Does this sound like a software issue or virus or...

Dell Inspiron 1200 help

If the electrical plug in and the battery out, it should power up. I have another Dell that I leave the battery off to preserve it and just leave it connected to wall outlet. I am thinking the motherboard is faulty but just wanted to confirm with someone else.

Dell Inspiron 1200 help

When the battery is out, it will not power up. I went to bios and looked at the battery section. Even with the plug in, it doesn't recognize it.

Dell Inspiron 1200 help

I had a friend give me an inspiron 1200 notebook that seemed to have a virus because it took forever to boot. I told him I could do a clean install of XP on it and it should fix it. I turned it on just long enough to put the disc in and restarted. Everything went fine until I started doing the...
