sound woes
so i downloaded itunes for windows. and copied my 7 gig collection to my pc drive. it sounded like crap. i have nice speakers under the desk. they should sound great. but they weren't playing. at all. the sound was coming out of the built in piece of shit speaker. no wonder. sound works fine on the mac side. weird. googled. seems i'm not the only one with the problem. the most common suggestion was to install the latest sound drivers. the second most popular was to roll back to the drivers on the leopard or snow leopard disk. wee. i didn't feel like doing either of those. one person said the speaker jack in the back was a piece of crap. and he taped the thing sideways just enough that windows could detect it. sigh. so i got the led flashlight and crawled under the desk. the cable was half unplugged. i pushed it in all the way. and voila! sound. woo hooty! sure glad i didn't play driver shuffle.
