  1. Saw this plan on an arduino website, but never the steps to implement it. Any suggestions on how to accomplish this end goal?My plan:Read engine RPM (possibly with an OBDII sensor)Have an LED strip that fills the interior of the vehicle reflect the engine speed by color using an RGB LED. As the engine gets faster, the led fades to different colors.Example: 800 rpm = Purple1500 rpm = Blue3000 rpm = Green4000 = Yellow5000 = Orange6000 = RedI want the colors to fade into each otherAny recommendations on where to start would be great.
  2. Avexir came out with some new RAM and SSD's at Computex and they look pretty badass. The problem is that they seem to already be out, yet I can't find any news, or stores that carry them. I live in the United States and I can only find a website from Germany selling them. I haven't used any of their products before but as I said before, they look awesome, so I think it would be worth a shot. I would be very thankful if anyone knew where I could pick up this RAM. Here is the link to their page. http://www.avexir.com/product/ROG/ROG-mobile.html
  3. I wiped the hard drive and now it works. Drastic solution but it is fixed.
  4. Installing the newest drivers did the trick.
  5. I just wiped my desktop's hard drive entirely clean because my PC was running some kinda awful. There is now a delightfully noticeable improvement in the speed of the machine. The problem now is that I cannot set up Eyefinity for the life of me. When I attempt to set it up, it states "Warning, your display configuration has changed". When I go to the Windows display settings it shows that everything but my center monitor is disabled. My setup has one monitor on top and three on bottom and I have the newest drivers. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
  6. I have 6 options pop up, with all but 1. having just the extend desktop clickable.
  7. It detects the two on either side of the center monitor, but claims they are disabled. In device manager they are enabled. The top monitor states that there is an incorrect resolution and disconnects the center monitor when plugged in. The far left monitor is connected by DVI to DVI. As is the far right monitor. The center monitor is connected DVI to HDMI. The top monitor is connected VGA to Displayport. The far left, top, and far right monitors are all 1280X1024 and the center is 1920X1080.
  8. I have four monitors and currently only one is working. I have narrowed the problem down to the graphics card as the monitors worked well with the 260X I was using. I just went back to my old 280X and now it just refuses to show more than one monitor. I would be happy to provide anymore information if it helps.
  9. As this is a bare-bones kit, it gives the opportunity of personalized customization without the time spent finding compatible parts for a full sized desktop. It is perfect for family living-room use and its incredibly small size lends itself nicely to travel and LAN parties. It provides an opportunity for those without the time or not too serious about fully building a pc from scratch the chance to personalize a machine of their own, fueling a passion that will last a lifetime.
  10. The headphones sound better because it is pine. Pine is the utmost pinnicle of wood based headphones. The sound never turns bad, just like a pine's leafs. Solid cold hard facts.
  11. They are supposedly set to be running on the Graphics Card but even with it specifically set to the Graphics Card it still will not run.
  12. Just tried that with a clean install of the driver and although the older driver is now installed it is still failing to run the games with the same error message.
  13. My Laptop is an Acer Aspire V7-482PG-5642 http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/model/NX.MB5AA.013
  14. Hello! I have an issue. The issue is that I am unable to play video games on my Laptop. This problem affects both Need For Speed Most Wanted and Dirt Showdown in that Most wanted states "A DirectX 10 or better graphics card is required. Please ensure you are using a supported graphics card with up to date drivers." and Dirt Showdown states "Failed to create D3D device. Check that the latest graphics drivers are installed." I am currently running an Nvidia 750m with the newest 353.06 driver. I also have the latest DirectX 11 installed onto my computer. I am in quite the pickle as I do not know what to do. Please help or provide ideas if you can. Thank you, Carlospicyness
