ok so I got that Asus Deluxe board with soundstorm

[dryass]

works great... no probs so far

the only prob i had, was when i went to update the driver from microsofts webpage, for some reason it didn't work, it just like unistalled my driver, was asking me to point were it was at and so forth (stupid windows update)

anyways.. the interferance was anoying.. but i muted the CD volume and it went away, so now its all good...first onboard audio i like...

Dont update drivers thru stupid Windows Update... not EVAH!!!!! :lol:




just get stuff from your stuff´s manufacturer, or if they dont update often, just reference drivers from the chipset makers...




btw, iirc the Asus board had something different that prevented nvidias reference drivers from working... so you had to stick with Asus´s.... (or so i read once...)

Yeah, I only update MS stuff ever since they bagged my Realtek NIC IN XP with an 'updated' drivre :rolleyes: :P

Nah, that was fixed ago. Now it only affects the Chaintech board:
