    Ok so on monday I got a hdd and mini sd card from komplett, came in a box and everything was grand, but today i got my ram and BULK sound card from overclockers in an enevelope and low and behold the installation cd for the card was broke in 2. The worst thing about is, is that so could have been the sound card, so anyone got a spare x-fi soundblaster install cd or will downloading all the software do.

    Also anyone experience an rma with dabs, just wondering how long it will take.

    Thanks

    Whats RMA? and id also like to know about the the dabs situation cause im going to be ordering 1400 euro worth of parts!

    Most likely you will probably have to download them but thats not that bad?

    Why don't you email overclockers and demand a cd? :D

    Basically I bought a zalman cpu cooler i got lazy didnt install it for a while and it didnt work and after 28 days you must send it back. They then send it on to the factory and get it repaired. Then it gets sent back to you

    Funny thing is my zalman cooler was doing a better job not spinning than my stock intel cooler while spinning about 6 degrees--- CRAZY

    I lost my CD and tried to download the drivers but i only got an update from the website which will not work unless you have the original cd.

    I wouldn't hold my breath for it, I'm still waiting for a cd they "posted" in July 2004 to arrive.

    Go to your Control Panel -computer management-administrative tools-disc management and take it from there you will have to format the drive, takes forever.
