    CD/MP3 Player Speakers Also Used with TV

    CD/MP3 Player Speakers Also Used with TV

    Thanks for the answers. Forgive me though. Both of you mention that the TV only has an optical audio connector. My TV also has two regular audio output jacks pn the right (see picture). Don't they provide an amplified signal?

    CD/MP3 Player Speakers Also Used with TV

    Memory Optimize Software

    FYI, running a 32 bit system. Also, as I said, I think one of the ram slots has issues. I have 4 mb installed (but it only reflects 3.3 mb). The MB caps out at 4 mb.

    Memory Optimize Software

    I was hoping for a software recommendation (hopefully freeware). I'm looking for a program that optimizes my memory. I want it to load at boot up. FYI, I have a old PC running Win 7. One of the DDR memory slots on my motherboard may be a messed up. It does not reflect the full 4 mb (I have...

    HDMI Port Not Working

    The TV has 2 HDMI ports. I used one with the cable box and the other is connected with my PC. Both the PC and TV work on Port #2. Port #1 was connected to the old cable box. The PC and TV do not work on Port #1 any more.

    HDMI Port Not Working

    My cable box was fried during a severe thunderstorm. I found that the HDMI port that was connected to it is also not working. I tried a different cable, but no luck. Should I try anything else before bringing the TV in for repairs? Regards...JohnB TV: RCA LED40C45RQ

    JPG/Image to PDF software

    I'm presently using printer driver type software to convert files to PDF's, but I'm not too happy with the results. Can anyone recommend a program (preferrably freeware) that coverts JPG's to PDF files? Hopefully one that has quality/compression control. Thanks in advance. [using Windows 7]
