No such thing, the end of the world is just the end of an era, this era. Once it is over the world shall be perfect and death shall be no more. The "end time" has already started.

My pastor just did a 5 week bible study (on Wednesdays) on the end times and they are on sale at my church for $15 for a 5-CD set ($3 per CD) he gets in depth plus a few questions from the congregation that he answers.... ask me if u want a set payment details can be made thru PM

Praying and holding you in my thought, brother in Christ.

I found traces of Ventrilo all through the Registry, but could find nothing I could identify about the settings -- server, etc. And Vent appeared to be in only one place in Windows Explorer, the program files folder.

I went to Ventrilo's site and got some info about my system's symptoms, but my settings match up. It is only when the game is not on my desktop that I my mic does not work. It is only when I press alt-tab in the middle of a game that I can use my mic.

Yes if you did not delete ALL files there is still residuals of the old program left.  When you reinstall the program it will look for that folder and leave some things unchanged.

good luck

Thanks for the input, Spartan. I will crack the case and look inside for loose cables. I did upgrade Vent, but I think I have to delete everything, including setup files, as well to get it to work.

My brother had the same problem with vent last night, friday 9/3/2010, and he updated vent and the problem was fixed. This is a  rather obvious fix, but just thought I might put that out there as last night I also had a disk boot error that ended up being caused by a loose cable connection. I spent 2 hours trying to figure it out and almost lost all hope.

So just putting that out there sometimes the obvious is overlooked cuz its too obvious

My next step is to try to uninstall Ventrilo again. When I did the last time, my settings for server, etc., were retained, which may be the problem. So, I will attempt to uninstall EVERYTHING before I reinstall Vent. I just need to figure out where all the settings info is stored. It does not seem to be where the Ventrilo program is kept under the Program Files folder.

It took awhile for my graphics to show full screen. In the game, I was having wide black vertical bands on the left and right sides of my monitor no matter what the resolution was set to. I kept plugging away at trying to get the graphics driver updated, which finally succeeded (I guess since the driver is dated 7 July 2010). Anyway, I have not had the veritial bands for awhile, and the video has stopped freezing up -- I think.

I still am having an occasional blue screen when my computer finishes POST, but the computer automatically reboots, and things work fine.

I disabled RealTek, so my Logitech USB headset works better, and for a while my Vent worked in open mic mode.

I am just about at the point of uninstalling Windows 7 and installing Windows XP because I don't think the problem is in Call of Duty4 or in Ventrilo. I think Win 7 is still buggy. Well, I will stick with Win 7 awhile longer and try to get it to work.

uhh i dont know if it makes a difference but i dont habve win pro its home edition just throwing that out ther
