It worked alright for about 2 months in slot 8 & then one day the computer wouldn't boot. I pulled all the cards and tried it & it worked fine. I finally determined that it was the card (but only in slot 8). So I put it in slot 7. 'phut' said my computer, creating massive anxiety on my part. To make a long story short, the card was pulling too much power off of an admittedly overladen mother board (all but 2 slots are full now). The solution: I bought a new card! Works great! (and since I am a legal owner of a microsoft card, I still have all the nice microsoft software). This is probably what you didn't want to hear.... Patrick Ryan
