As Bill has already mentioned, you can buy them from his TP site or from IBM.
You should have received one with the adapter??? Also remember that if you plan
on using the digital audio you will need a second adapter.
As for waterfall and other such products, you already have what they provide. All they do
is idle the processor so you conserve energy and reduce heat. Many people who overclock
their systems use this to reduce the heat and hopefully prolong the life of the CPU.
TP's have power saving utilites and you would not gain anything from using them...I know.
If your worried about the heat, at least from the processor, then don't. As you will notice with time
the fan hardly ever comes on. The processor stays within spec and doesn't really get hot. For a long time
I thought it was the processor that made the TP's so hot but it really is the hard drive and the DC card.

Hi all,
I have the 770e with the enchanced video adapter card for DVD playback. Where can I buy the JACK that I need in order to playback DVD movies on my TV set ? I tried radio shack, circuit city, best buys and other stores but to no avail !! :(
Also it seems like my computer automatically loads up Microsoft find fast and office startup. Are these eating up my computer resources ?? should I get rid of them ? HOW ??
Anyone tried using waterfall pro or rain drop prog to cool down their CPU ?? is it worth it ???
Thank you all for your help again :)
Jon
