Hi Everyone,
New member with an old computer that needed an audio upgrade and thus my purchase of the Nu Audio sound card.  I’m having the same problems as others with getting the drivers to load.  I have read the other threads and tried loading the older version of the drivers (after cleaning out the original install files) but that didn’t work either.  Perhaps this computer is just to old to take this card – although the specks say that it should work.  Any suggestions would be appreciated – otherwise I’m going to have to return it.  I really want to get it to work as I am looking forward to enjoying it use.  BTW- the good news is that so far I haven’t crashed the computer and I haven’t let any of the magic smoke leak out of the card…….;)
