A friend and I both have these cards in our systems. We both use our systems for games as well as playing music through are low end computer speakers. No home theator but some times we will play dvd / divx movies. We both like playing some older games as well as some newer ones. His system is XP/Pro and Mine is Xp/Home (at least about this machine, I have another one too) I think His pc is a AMD 2600 and the one I am talking about here is a AMD 64 3200+. Ram on his pc I think is one gig as well as this one too. Can this card run drivers that will make the games like Thief Deadly Shadows think there is EAX 2.0 installed ?
