Guys I need some help with this.

Whenever I connect it to my laptop and open Studio 11, I get a message saying "A valid input signal was not detected. Please check your cables". Obviously, I check my cables as it says but it doesn't help. + I also had this problem when I first bought it and can't remember how I got around it.

I have no video preview in Studio 11 and my Xbox 360 is on the right setting for being detected.

Any ideas?

(Yes ive searched google and couldn't find anything).

First of all, this problem is to do with Software and not Hardware.

Okay so my issue is that a few months ago I purchased a Dazzle Video Creator which comes with Pinnacle Studio 11. Everything installed perfectly then and all was fine. Now that I have come back to it, I install Studio 11 but it asks for a serial code again. I enter the one I was given and it's invalid (obviously, since I had already registered it).

How do I overcome this? Surely there must be a solution without having to buy another copy of the program.

Well since a few days ago since I started playing on my xbox again it has been freezing constantly wether on dashboard, messages, game played off disc, game played off HDD etc. And today when I turned on my xbox, I had a message on my screen saying "Input not supported". I checked all my cables and even switched to Scart to see if this made a difference and nothing worked.

What the hell is going wrong and am I going to have to buy my 5TH! xbox in 2 years?

Because if that is the case then Xbox can have it back and ill get a PS3.

Does anybody know why this is becoming more popular by the day?

Around 2am this morning I went on R6V for a little bit and I found around 7 games of Attack and Defend.. All with 10-14 players in.

Not a bad thing :P I love R6V.

Is there anyway I can wipe ONE of my harddrives and leave the other with the data on? (Both internal)

Or will I have to buy an external harddrive, switch over the data and then wipe them? (The data is about 10GB)

aura_enchanted

if this is a windows pc yes here are the instructions: find my computer (eithe rin start menu or desktop) left click and scroll down to "manage" there on the right hand list select disk management select your hard drive you wish to wipe. left click the hard drives name and click format. tada one wiped hard drive.

Hmm.. I daren't do that because the harddrive I wish to wipe is my main harddrive.. I want that back to factory settings but leaving the other harddrive untouched. (My spare HDD has WoW which is 12.6gb and Photoshop CS2). I get the feeling that clicking format will wipe the whole thing.. Including the system lol.

Do you have any links to any good recommended laptop coolers or whatever?

I think I might just upgrade my video card/graphics card if I can.. Not sure if that's possible with a laptop.

I am using a Toshiba laptop the model is "Equium A200-1V0" I think. I play WoW on this laptop all the time and today, for the first time in a few months it overheated and turned off straight away. Once I turn it back on, the blue error screen pops up for a few split seconds before booting up normal again. I'm guessing the blue screen will be to show there was a problem with the computer and what not but what I want to know is.. Is there anyway to stop my laptop from overheating? Is this specific model more prone to overheating than others? I do lowest settings on everything to ensure maximum performance from it. I am also running the Windows 98 layout because ive heard it speeds up the loading on your computer.

I play WoW with the powercable inserted all the time due to the fact that if I dont, I get extreme lag and it becomes unplayable. (I really don't see how a powercable determines how fast your internet connection is). I have deleted alot of programs and un-needed files from my laptop and I also only run a few programs at a time (Unless im on WoW.. Then I run no other programs other than WoW).

I was hoping to upgrade the RAM on this laptop in a few days but I need to know about this overheating problem before I do so because it could end up being a waste of money. If there is no solution to the overheating problem, is there any specific laptops I could use to run WoW without overheating?

[QUOTE="Xilerance"]

Okay guys ive made another sig, I believe its my third posted on here..

Just wondered if I could get a few ratings out of 10 and maybe some tips to improve?

Here is a list of what I think is wrong with it..

- Lack of depth

- Effects around the focal point not done very well

- Text needs more work.

fanboy-buster

I don't like the rectangles...removed them and you get a great sig :)

Also you could lighten the pen-brush over the sprite since it is too thick.

Everybody is saying that.. I added them rectangles in the hope to make the sig look more alive and to bring attention to the sprite xD But okay ill try what you have said.

Thanks for the feedback.
