So far, all new PC's I've encountered still have drivers for XP if you go to their website. The trick to recognizing SATA is to set it to "Compatible" instead of "Native" in BIOS. Once you've installed the proper driver you can set it back to Native. If you can't use USB to transfer the drivers after installing XP you could burn them on a CD. That said, I understand that getting the RME to work with Win7 and ALSA would be the best option. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
