Honestly dude, any not-made-for-recording card is gonna give you problems, either with sound quality or even just getting it to physically work. Save up for a proper interface, and take the extra time you've got before recording to practice! Regardless of how well you think you know your songs, everybody can always use more practice...


*edit: nobody would ever recommend that you downgrade to Vista. It's the worst Microsoft operating system since Windows ME.
