| 23816 | 2001-11-07 00:19:00 | Ive got a pentium 2 with 128mb ram and 12gb hard drive, i use my computer for mainly surfing the net, games and a few minor other things. im wanting to upgrade my soundcard to a soundblaster audigy so i can hook my computer through my stereo to listen to all my mp3s. will i need more ram and will my computer be fast enough to surf etc while also listening to music? thanx in advance |

| 23821 | 2001-11-12 16:02:00 | A soundblaster live is fine for mp3s costs around $100 2nd hand it pays to get cable and use winmx or morpheus have over 2000 mp3s myself, now more into movies dvds vcds etc contact me if you want any advice kiwibeat@hotmail.com |
