thanks, Windows, for recognizing the card right away and I didn't need that mouse or that keyboard anyways

@noiob please note that the driver CD is branded for a sound card, with a little sticker on the sleeve explaining which driver to use

also the readmes are in Word 97 with images WordPad on XP can't display, it's the little things

because WordPad is a piece of hot garbage, it asks me for every image wether it should stop converting the file, like no, just tell me you couldn't do it, why wouldn't I wanna look at your attempt anymore?

omg the fucking WinXP drivers aren't even on the disk, it tells me to download them from Windows Update

uh so I gotta fix my wifi first I guess?

also uhhh it crashed my Windows when I tried having it installed without having a driver installed so this might all be useless attempts

Managed to get it online using my phone as a hotspot! Progress! Or at least I will be able to try tooting from it if everything else fails

lol, the card works fine in Windows ME, just installed the driver and I'm good to go. I can also read the Readme just fine since I have Word 2000 installed.

XP doesn't even start with the card installed
