    I thought about watercooling for the sound benefits, but ended up going for quiet fans. I don't do that much cpu intensive work or overclocking, so heat isn't really a problem, and if something were to go wrong with the water cooling and I ruined my system it would be a long time before I could afford another semi-decent one. About the audigy 2, i found it cheap and the real reason i wanted it was for the remote. I haven't had problems with mp3's though.

      Ah, I didn't have enough drivebays to install the console thingy for it. I just have the card installed in my computer. I should've waited for the EX version. =\

        When I installed it I downloaded the latest drivers, and I don't think it would matter but not having the livedrive hooked up may have something to do with your problem, I doubt it though.

          My next paycheck is going towards 1 gig of PC3200 RAM ... I didn't realize I had ordered the 2700 until it was too late. So after I get the 3200 I'll probably just sell it to a friend.

              Yay ... after I got my computer parts in it was a matter of assembling and getting it going. Now 4 days late I have my (very small) network up and running!

              woot woot!

                  I'm looking to get a laptop myself, I'm going to be moving soon so I'm sort of getting ready to be a little nomadic and don't have enough room for a full blown PC setup..but don't want to hijack anyone's thread...
