RANT* (...or the straw that broke the cammels back)

i bought a silly little desktop mic (with the arm) of course just plugging it in wouldnt work. (its vista!)

"high definition audio device"* ..hmm* maybe i should load the MB audio drivers: Soundmax HD...

so....i did:


.

reboot ...then....

.* which loops infinately ..

then - device cannot start...

.

no solution available...

.


so.. after trying figure out why i couldnt open an important excel attachment all day - till i finally tried rebooting - (which fix it cause vista loses ram programs links or some crazy bull___*) it works because it... decided too! ..and then this.


NO HUMAN ON EARTH SHOULD SPEND over 3k ON a machine - and have to change the motherboard because of SATA blue screens - to buy over 4 video cards to get aero to work ( 200, 350, 200$ +) to have on board VISTA ready audio - that DOESNT work

im literally looking at this and ready to push over my f'in desk

i am formating this PISTA SH__ this weekend - going back to XP - if ONLY to see if it works

(*blue screens are gone at least)


* i just wanted to try singing something on acoustic guitar

heaven forbid!


AARRRGGGGGGG



edit: and yes - i tried the new asus website drivers...same thing... and yes - i plugged into the "pink" line in mic jack - the one in back of machine - AND the one in front.
