Still waiting for Google Chromecast to arrive?

Google speeds up Chromecast shipments, but inventory remains low

Google has reduced the time buyers have to wait to receive the $35 Chromecast TV device, saying it will ship orders in two weeks or less.

The Chromecast order page on Google’s Play Store states that units will ship by Sept. 3. Earlier, Google did not provide a specific date and said units would ship within three weeks from the order date, but a shortage led to cancelled orders and delayed shipments.

No audio on HP dc7700 machine after Windows 7 Enterprise upgrade

Posted in IT Discussions | Leave a comment

I recently upgrade a HP dc700 to Windows 7 Enterprise and next thing I know there was no audio. The speaker icon will show a X and the tool tip said “No Audio Output Device”. I did all the typical stuff (download drivers from HP, manufacturer, run troubleshooter, etc) and still have no audio. If this is you, don’t be alarmed. There may still be one thing left to do. I resolved this issue by accessing the BIOS by restating the computer and pressing F10. Locate On Board Devices and Enable On Board Audio. Yes, it was that simple. Let me know if it works for you.

uDraw Pictionary

Posted in | Leave a comment

So I finally got a good deal on the uDraw Nintendo Table for the Wii this Christmas. It came with a drawing game but I also got the Pictionary Game. Setting up the uDraw tablet was very simple. Just inserted the Wii remote in slop and plugged in to tablet and it was ready to go. The pen on the tablet took a bit to get used to. It seemed that every time the pen was lifted from the surface of the tablet the icon on the TV screen moved up. It was weird but it worked.

The Verdict

7Good

The Good: Easy uDraw Tablet setup | No extra batteries needed | Games were simple and easily explained

The Bad: Took a bit to get used to “drawing” on the tablet | Icon on screen kept moving up every time the pen was lifted from tablet
