Downloaded and installed on our other nforce2 board the MSI K7N2G and they seem fine, of course will give it a few hours in the hands of my 16 year old I am sure he will find any hangup's if there are any

Thank you I did that on the MSI K7N2G with this cpu and ram the board was 2 weeks old , I passed that to my kids and have not yet tried with this set-up The Gigabyte is by far faster and more stable when in the high FSB and right now I am at the magic 200 FSB but I am stress testing , I will go for 3dmark when I have found the sweet spot on this rig. And now I have the new drivers to install and I might end up starting over on the overclock , who knows how it will react if I switch out the mobo drivers.

Thanks I always smile when I think about the $120U.S I paid for this card monthes ago I am very pleased at its performance / cost ratio

One does anyone use the Sound Storm chip and what do you think about the drivers and the sound. When I load this version there is a noticed lack in bass and I've gone back to the older drivers. Does anyone have this issue or notice it. Also have I missed steps and maybe the driver is not loading the way it should. I would love to have the fixes for this release but to lose bass to me is not worth it and what does that say about the drivers. Also I hear this flaw is there even other flaws in the old driver. I like the Sound Storm alot but I am so use to the Audigy but again hated their drivers also and lack of updates.

any help would be excellent

thanks

question, you are plugged into the center port right ? I would imagine so. Did you try to select the center in windows sound volume control in the advanced tab ????

I imagine you did all this but just wanted to see if I could help.

I always liked powerstrip's application launcher for that you could create a custom profile for the game in question and when you launch it powerstrip kicks in

Thanx Kermit found it. The program is shareware. Do you know what limitations are on it?
