    bose speaker hooked up to TV

    Optical cable will give you better sound quality vs analog anyway. If the speaker has optical input, then go for it!

    Is it possible to try connecting directly to your router via ethernet? this would rule out wi-fi issues.

    New Latop runs internet slow at home!!

    Haha! I would still try to get a result at each location to be able to cross the internet service off the list. Which browser are you using?

    Taking mic out of old headset

    It depends on how each manufacturer has this setup, and even if you've brought the mic components out (if even possible) i doubt it's going to fit.

    Bittorrent Program so slow plz help

    http://www.pcworld.com/article/244314/how_to_forward_ports_on_your_router.html Use this article on how to port forward. Keep in mind each router manufacturer has a slightly different interface so you may need to do some digging around in the settings.

    Refurbished vs. New

    Refurbished isn't all that bad tbh. I've bought laptops in the past refurbished. The way i look at it... After being refurbished you're getting something that the repair guys have had to personally look over (ensuring it's fixed/works)... Compared to factory line assembly. Refurbished is a...

    Headset / Soundcard compatibility

    The 5.1 headset will work fine on a 7.1 soundcard. It just won't benefit from the added depth of 7.1. Don't need a 5.1ch card so don't worry. You basically plug in all the wires you have with your setup. Check out this article...

    Audio/Video gets choppy sometimes (I have a video of the problem)

    It's happened to me as well, Once in a while i get a pause for 1-2seconds about 5seconds into a video. then it's fine the entire vid. I'm convinced it's a youtube problem with flash/java
