(More customer reviews)I bought this card based on the other 5 star recommendations and it's cost. I installed it in a new PC I built that has a FOXCONN A74ML-K 3.0 motherboard and Windows 7 64-bit for the OS. The motherboard has Integrated ATI® Radeon(tm) 2100 graphics and 5.1 channel HD Audio. I thought that since this card also has Radeon Graphics and ATI drivers that my chances of having everything work together were pretty good. First off, Windows 7 is not listed as a supported OS on the box System Requirements list. However, there is a Windows 7 64-bit compatible universal driver on the ATI Catalyst support website (released 12/13/2010). I installed this driver. The graphics seems to work well, although I'm not a big gamer. "Then why did you buy this card", you ask? Because I wanted an HDMI output that did not come with the mainboard (it was an afterthought requirement). And this leads me to my problem. Although the graphics works fine the sound does not come through on the HDMI port. There are all sorts of people with this problem with ATI related cards. I've tried all the supposed "fixes" and nothing has worked so far. So I really could have accomplished what I have with a DVI to an HDMI converter. But I have to say that the Windows experience score for graphics and gaming on the PC went from 3.7 and 3.4 to 6.7 for both. So, if that's what you need it seems to be a good card, but if you want sound through the HDMI port than look somewhere else.
Update - I found the driver necessary for this to work including the sound through HDMI. Therefore, I'm changing my review rating. I could go to 4 stars because it was a hassle finding the right driver. However, I'm rating this 5 stars because now that it is working, it works great! BTW - if you find yourself in the same situation the driver that I used is the one on the ATI Radeon site (AMD) called "AMD Catalyst(tm) Accelerated Parallel Processing (APP) Technology Edition" issued 12/13/2010 with a size of 88.9 MB.
