Apparently there are at least enough problems that they have chosen not to support that configuration. Non support does not mean it will not work. In fact many users successfully use various products in nonsupported configurations. The bottom line is if you have problems and you are in a non supported path, they can quickly refuse you support so their resources can be directed to those with supported configurations. Non supported is not the same as will not work properly. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar "Doc" <docsavage20@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:cf6ed3ec-e011-48ee-ad83-90e4d21d5d9d@e10g2000prf.googlegroups.com... >I had a question about my M-Audio Audiophile 2496.
