I've had two soundcards fail in 10 years. The current one is on-board the motherboard, which does not inspire confidence.....


Having said that, I do have a lot of hardware issues, for reasons I do not understand. If I paid someone to fix them, I wouldnt OWN a computer. I go to the local 'computer fair' and buy second-hand parts until I fix the problem. Then I know what to do next time.
