I've heard from various people that there are known issues with the SB Live value on the new KT133A chipset motherboards. I'm looking at changing my SB Live anyway as I have a need for this card in a new build (Old rig new box). It's nearly two years old and was bought when they had just come out. What do you recommend? PC Spec: ABIT KT7A Raid T-Bird Axia 1Ghz (Still running in from new) 256Mb Kingmax Ram GF2 Elsa Ultra
The Hercules Game Theater XP is getting some really good write ups on the net, but that may be a bit more than you want to pay. http://www.sharkyextreme.com/theguide/high_game_pc/9.shtml http://www.gamersdepot.com/hardware/sound_cards/hercules/game_theater_xp/001.htm
Yeah, seen these too it's within my budget *cough* The only problem for me is I do a lot of LAN's Means another box to cart around?
My sound card has stopped working ... wont allow my pc to boot up (sb live!) so it looks like i will be either getting a sonic fury or finding some dosh 4 a game theater XP
Nothing wrong with the Sonicfury. I have one and with the exception of having to download the drivers for NT and 2000 (24 meg each) i've had no problems. Bit of an upgrade from the SB PCI 128 i originally had!
