Travis Dennie — Mon, 05 Jul 2010 05:15:58 +0000

That’s right, folks! HTC’s first 4G phone (wait, I mean the first 4G phone) is now able to be toyed around with more than ever before. HTC has released the source code for the EVO 4G’s kernel.

I smell (taste?) Froyo right around the corner. Hopefully quick because Android 3.0 (Gingerbread) is right around the corner. Let’s go, xda-dev!

Hit the download link below for the goods.

[FIXED] ASUS G73JH Audio Issue – System Locks Up

Because I’m lazy, I’m going to copy and paste my post from the NBR forums here:

This is also going to be a direct copy-and-paste from the NBR forums about an issue that I personally ran into. Credit goes to xzero101. Hopefully this can help someone! Click more to read on.

Ok guys, I finally found a fix for the random crackling noise in Win 7.

Here’s are the steps :

1) Unistall the “Realtek High Definition Audio Driver” from “Programs and Features” in the control panel.

2) Goto http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/…&GetDown=false, check the little box and click next. And on the next page, download the Win 7 (64bit) Driver Version R2.42.

3) The most important part is to install the driver in compatibility mode to “Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)”. To do this right click on the download driver setup, Goto “Properties” and click on the “Compatibility” Tab..After doing that just install the driver and restart your lappy.

3) After you restarted the comp, open “Sound” from the Control Panel. There should be 2 playback devices named “Speakers”. The 2nd one is already set as default driver, so to make your sound better just Set the 1st driver as default playback device and after your done with that, just mute the 2nd “Speakers” device by going to it’s “Properties”.

Finally your “Sound” window should like this :

The Creative software won’t work this method, so just uninstall them. They are kinda useless to me anyways.

Well hope this helps for anyone whose having sound problems with their G73s. Good Luck and Enjoy

Lower Your Ping with TcpAckFrequency & TCPNoDelay

Travis Dennie — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 23:07:45 +0000

A few hints to lower your ping in many online games:

1) Run regedit and find the following location…

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\Tcpip\

Parameters\Interfaces\

2) Add a new DWORD (32-bit) named “TcpAckFrequency” and set its value to “1″ under the desired interface.

3) Add a new DWORD (32-bit) named “TCPNoDelay” and set its value to “1″ as well.

4) Next, find this location…

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSMQ\Parameters

5) Add a new DWORD (32-bit) naned “TCPNoDelay” and set its value to “1″.

6) Close regedit, reboot, and you’re done.
