The problem with SPDIF output not working in win2k is a problem with the OS, not the sound cards. It MAY be fixed with SP2

There have been no new drivers for the mx400 for win2k since frigging middle of '99 I think. That's not to say that I will buy some sb pos either. I just hope another company produces a decent...

Ah, I have the same staticky prob out of the right channel, mostly when I'm using winamp. I'm running win2k, and when i emailed s3 about new drivers they said no chance.

With decent sub-bass in a stereo you can feel the bass with your whole body, of course it'll cost a lot more than $50 http://discussions.hardwarecentral.com/frown.gif

The dolby digital decoding on the...
