| I'm wondering if this deceptively cheap PNY DDR2-800 RAM might be the issue. BTW tried out the intel onboard sound to see how its come along in recent years.
It hasn't. Narrow soundstage, tinny, muffled mids, about as bad as they get. Using an old Audigy 1 for the moment.
I've got a copy of windows around here somewhere, and I might install that, then use it to flash the bios with teh new version.
Amazing that after all these years you still need a floppy drive to flash BIOS.
