Easy setup on dual boot 32-bit XpPro and Vista Ultimate, did download latest drivers though so don't know about drivers on cd. Blows the doors off of onboard sound in games, movies, and music (most stereos and surround systems aren't this good either). Have tested it with BOSE 2.1, Logitech 5.1's, and into a Yamaha DTS Surround system through optical fiber or digital coax. Card does everything it claims (tried hard to find something wrong with it but couldn't, dang, I could get used to this). Specs:Q6600,Asus P5N-D,Corsair 2x2GB 8500C5CF G,EVGA 9800GTXssc,DVDR/W,250GB HD
