Works pretty good in my xp based asus nnetbook too. It's a realtek hd. It had problems with GMA games thouggh, in sod it used smoe sort of stereo stuff that made it sound 3d, even though the game was set to stereo, so I changed it to use software buffers and that particular problem went away. GTC actually works fine if I remember right. Lone wolf the ships wouldn't play left or right, they were always in the center as though they were mono. changeing lw's sounds.ini to use software buffers fixed that problem too. There are some sideaffects to doing this, like it causes other programs to sound retarded when the game is running. ----- Original Message ----- From: Constantine To: Gamers Discussion list Sent: Friday, February 06, 2009 7:43 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] work around for realtech hd cards
