You can go to sys preference and adjust the sound balance yourself:
This link will show you how to get the setting, but for you is internal speakers instead headphone. http://www.ofzenandcomputing.com/zanswers/6311/ Manually decrease the right side so it balance out. |

Maybe you have sensitive ears. Most ppl did not notice that. You can take out the subwoofer (cut the cable) but you won't get boot chime if you do that. And I think you don't want to do that.

Hi there,
Can you explain what you meant by "After a 10-15 minutes shut down. it will run again. " You meant your Mac Pro will self power up after 10-15 mins of shutdown? |

Which card are you using? There are certain card that known to have issues.
And what port are you connected to? Full size DVI? Mini Display? The basic troubleshooting you can try is using different cable or different port. Re seat the card to different slot. Reset PRAM. We have encounter similar issue on a Mac Pro with dying graphic cards, weeks later the owner reported the symptoms the card gone totally, no display on power up. A replacement is required. |

@dreign, HD2600 is one of the problematic card. Since it's working on different slot, just monitor it until the symptom come back.
Reset PRAM: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?pa...6/en/26871.html The card only available via Service partners as replacement parts, will cost around RM700. |

Did you switch your TV to HDMI (PC) input? Some TV need to manually switch that over to get it working.
Also, try to plugin the TV and restart your Mac. Alternatively, after plugin the TV switch to different resolution on your Mac. Also turn off mirroring. |

In that case you have to try other adapter.
If possible just bring your Mac to somewhere else and test the adapter on other TV. |

Yes, normal household vacuum will generate electrostatic. Which is bad for micro components.
Our cleaning process involve taking out each component and further take apart for cleaning. We will disassemble the fan and brush clean the blade. Other component are clean with special vacuum design for electronic components which is static safe. You have to be careful that not to damage anything, we don't want a simple cleaning job end up replacing logicboard for client. |

Compressed air can do the job. But the dust will fly around the room or place wherever you are doing the dusting. Which is very bad for health.
We have experience with canned air. The air blow out are cold and causing condensation on the surface. Not ideal for electronic components. |

They ain't cheap. We remember buying at RM40+, thats bulk buying in carton boxes. Any electronic equipment share the same principal. Did you notice the air blowing out is cold? Those that we used have this problem.
