Ok, my first question is probably a long shot, as it's probably something I've screwed up somehow. I have a microphone and headphones. both run along the same wire then split at the end as two different jacks. I have them plugged in properly, as far as i know. The new computer I've just built has 6 sound in/out slots on the back. The slot i have the mic plugged into is the only one that allows the mic to work, and the slot i have the headphones plugged into is the only one that seems to allow sound to work. (On default settings that is). The problem is, when i talk in teamspeak, or in counter strike / whateva, people can hear what i hear, as if I'm using speakers. So if I'm shooting someone while i talk, they can all hear the gun sounds too, which evidently is quite loud.
I've tried messing with a lot of controls both on the PC and in the sound part of the control panel, but everything either keeps it the same or just allows no mic. I have another program, that I believe is from my Asus Motherboard.. it's a sound program that runs in the back. It has tons of settings, most of which I dont know anything about. I've tried fiddling around with it but it doesnt help. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions of how to simply limit what my microphone catches to my voice, that would be great.
My second question is probably rather simple. I play a lit of CSS and Gary's mod. Recently I've purchased BF2, and in order to play it I need to set my graphics card at 4x AGP through my BIOS rather than 8x. The computer I'm using is brand new, I've been building it for a while now, but the final piece I need is the video card. So for now I'm using a 9200 SE 128MB AGP. 9200 isn't supported by BF2, so i need to change it to 4x AGP and 128MB in the BIOS. which is no problem, and the game runs fine. The thing I'm wondering is, Will having this at 4x AGP affect my CSS frame rates? Or will it be hardly noticeable? Lately I've been attaining roughly 90-140 FPS on CSS, and I'd like it to remain that way. BF2 isn't worth ruining CSS.
Thanks to anyone who can help with either question.
