The NOS1 came with an AC and a USB cable... Did you mask the ground pin of the USB ?

Alain

Does the tweak have to do with electricity ?

For those braves who wish to know it they are good at this, here is a test that will help you determine if you can distinguish an original piece of music with its watermarked sibling...

I do have some UMG downloads... Will have to check on this. I would be surprised if I (I speak for myself only) hear that, but... It is discouraging... How come they thought of something like this...

Alain

I thought this would be of interest...

For sure some of us will be able to hear this...

Has others experienced the same thing as Peter ? Juan reported that there was a lot less hum when isolated, but he did not mention what Peter is experiencing... Could it then be that what turns wrong for a PC-motherboard-USB cable,etc... Will turn ok for another ?

Alain

Happy 10k anniversary Peter ! 

Alain

Peter, when you mention that one can only create a backup file from Acronis, it can only be so on DVDs ?

Alain

EDIT: Nevermind... We know it is possible to backup an OS image on a drive. I guess you were answering to Anthony about his question about not having to pay for another already installed drive...

I have to say that this thread is dead silent...

Alain

Strange question to ask, but at this point...

Should it be eventually a good thing to isolate the other PCIe cards around also ? Video card for example ? I don't have any rational hypothesis behind this, but ?...

Alain

Wow... I am still trying to understand exactly the results. This time the stakes seem very high ! For the moment I am stuck with headphones but as soon as I get the chance, you bet I will check these results with the "isolated" card !

Alain

Thanks

Alain

Hi Anthony,

As I understand it, there will be a need for the 2 voltages ? If so, there would be a need for a 2 voltage LPSU ? I see these PCIEx riser cables, but I have yet to find a diagram...

Regards,

Alain

I must say that when I read your answer yesterday, by context I could apprehend what it was about, but I preferred to verify   I like the expression because it is a different way to express things. I will try to formulate it in French.

I feel the same sometimes with my pc by the way So many things happening in that box. I am sure that the electrons running inside are all a little
