    DUAL AMD XP'S HELP!!!

    I've read its possible to run a dual xp instead of the mp processor. Does anyone know how to do this? I'm also wondering about motherboards...I was looking at a TYAN 760MPX board as i do not require 64bit pci slots. I NEED as many of the regular 32bit slots as possible. What would you...

    AC '97 Information

    For general use, light gaming etc. your onboard sound will do fine. I doubt the problem with that other dudes DVD playback is because of his sound card. Sounds like some sort of driver issue. If your looking to put a four speaker system in though you will want to look for a live! or audigy...

    what's best card for recording from a line in?

    oh and just to claify...the audigy DOES support 24bit PLAYBACK. It will NOT record at 24bit though. it will record at a max of 16bit which is more than enough for most uses. There are still lots of studio's which still record at 16bit. peace

    what's best card for recording from a line in?

    Well...i'm not sure if everyone read his question very carefully. He is recording from NES and SNES not doing studio work. ANY GENERIC sound card will do...yes there are better and better cards out there. He is recording from a sound source that at TOPS will output 16bit sound which any card...

    what's difference between the audigy and SB Live?

    On-board sound question

    onboard sound really doesn't use any less resources than say a live! or audigy would. if your looking for something just to listen to music on cheep computer speakers etc...onboard sound is all you need. if your looking for high end sound spend the extra money.

    Home recording studio setup.

    nope just get a mixer with a good mic preamp. The hercules game theatre is a good idea as it will sit away from your computer to elimate fan noise while recording. but if you wanna save money you can get away with just a sb Live! card or even an old AWE64 or EVEN a sb 16 just get a converter...
