Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
If you are running XP you don't need either.
It gets pulled over the IDE bus. But there shouldnt be a significant difference with an Operating System that uses the cable.
Yeah.. havn't connected them in any computer lately. Just make sure the digital audio extraction is enabled.
Control panel --> Sounds and Audio Devices --> Hardware Tab --> Select your Drive --> Properties --> Make sure Digital CD Audio is selected for each drive you have.
I think that is usually enabled anyhoo.. I never had to select it.
