    Sadly the on-board audio card took a crap and stopped working
  

*by R***D on Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2015*

I have an old Gateway computer in my workshop that was given to me for scrap.  I loaded Vista (the original OS) and was able to get it setup as a "media type" computer.  Sadly the on-board audio card took a crap and stopped working.  I was connecting the headphone jack to a Craig's List Pioneer stereo receiver to blast my Pandora and YouTube  tunes while working.  I found this PCI card, an inexpensive and awesome alternative to replacing the free computer.  Took a few hours to get it to work, the DVD drive did not want to work correctly.  Had to go to the Rosewill 5.1 drivers page and download the software.  I then installed the card after shutting down the computer.  When the computer rebooted I was able to hear the sounds of windows again!  Back to jamming in the shop while working on the projects.  Price was around $21 with Prime 2 day shipping.  Very happy with this purchase!

*by M***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 10, 2015*

Bought this card strictly for the small PCB, I have a micro case and my GPU was getting a bit warm smooshed up against my old full sized PCB Sound Card...had a bit of trouble installing the drivers, finally downloaded updated drivers and after I extracted the folder, instead of going into the "WIN7" folder and running the driver install within that file, I just ran the install that was located in the base folder after I extracted.  The first few times I tried it, it was telling me that the card was not plugged in, even though my device manager showed it.  After a reboot, and an install of the correct driver, I finally got it working.  Once I had it working, I selected 5.1 option from the "configure speakers" option within the playback device window...at this point, it still wasn't separating my rear speakers, it was then I realized there was a new item in my control panel called "C Media PCI Audio"  Once I selected this, it enabled me to select rear speakers and set my center, and front speakers as well as my subwoofer.  Sounds great now, all speakers working when they should be working.  The only issue I have so far is when it's turned up loud, there is a bit of fuzz feedback, its not a buzz like a ground loop, just a very faint white noise, I can't hear it when I'm playing so I'm not real upset about it.  Overall, good card for the money.

*by J***T on Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2015*

The mother board i had instantly disabled its on board audio and video if a video card alone was inserted. So after I learned that I also need to purchase a separate audio card since my video card was not always active (one port to monitor with no audio and and HDMI port to a TV that was only running sometimes for movies). This card worked just fine, it did glitch intentionally(choppy audio) but on the second reboot with no operate assistance it sorted itself out and works perfect.
