MOTU PCI-324 works on Vista

[Fishmed]

Just wanted everyone to know that the MOTU PCI-324 card works fine on Vista using the XP drivers.

 

[Track Rat]

VERY cool. I've been wondering about that very thing.

Thanks for the update. Good to know there's life still in my 2408mkII.

Thanks VERY much for stating this info.
If I can get more use out of this 324 then why not?
All the 424 card really adds is zero latency for monitoring, but I us external monitoring anyways so it's not an issue for me.

I'm still waiting for a while before switching to Vista. We'll be getting it on our work computers, so I'll get to see if it's worth buying and using.

The issue will be finding motherboards in the future that will work with a 324. I was just discussing this with one the tech guys at MOTU. They dont even work properly on some mobos now that are Vista compatible. At least they offer a card trade in upgrade plan to get a 424 PCIe card.

Yeah, it does take some researching.
I have a Intel C2D E6700 on an MSI 975x Platinum. Works like a champ.
the key is finding a mobo that has 3.3/5v PCI slots like that MSI.
