    I needed a new sound card for an older computer and didn’t want to spend a lot of money. This card fit the bill perfectly. While Windows XP didn’t install the card natively, once the drivers were loaded off of the enclosed installation disk, the system rebooted and there was sound.

    Don’t expect audiophile quadraphonic rock-your-world super-duper sound for $20. But good stereo sound – good enough to play your kids’ crappy mp3′s for hours and hours – you’ll get plenty of that.

    I have experienced none of the problems stated by the reviewer George Heiser. This card works just fine on my computer.

    Now, to why I rated the product 5 stars. I recently bought the Logitech X-530 5.1 system and needed a new sound card to replace my old on-board card. Sound Blaster cards and other big brand cards were very expensive, and I was on a budget. Then I find this card, a 5.1 standard 6-channel sound card for $19.99! I ordered it and it came in two days. I installed the card then followed the instructions and in about five minutes the card was working perfectly. The hardware the comes with the card is basic, but fine for my needs. I did experience one problem with the card, but I had it was because of a dead PCI slot (Opon moving it to another, the problem was fixed).

    Put simply, this card works. If you are on a budget and need a new sound card, go for this card. I mean, it’s nothing fancy but for $19.99 you can’t go wrong.

    I ordered this card to put in my mother’s computer. She needed a basic card for listening to online music and such – nothing fancy – and this fit the bill. Install was a snap and took perhaps 10 minutes. I encountered no problems with drivers on XP and she was back up and happily listening to music within 15 minutes. Perhaps not the card for a picky audiophile, but great as a no-frills, good quality card which delivers surprisingly good sound for such little money.
