Pros: I reviewed this back in 2010 but have owned it since 2007-08. It is a flawless card, and has served me well in two different builds over the past six years. Under Vista/7 and above you just have to make sure you install the right driver. Do a web search for CMI8738/C3DX or to simplify CMI8738. Find the driver for Win7 32 or 64 bit. Extract the files and run the setup. THAT IS ALL YOU NEED TO DO AND IT WILL RUN.
Cons: N/A
Overall Review: DO NOT use the included software for Vista, 7 and above. It WILL NOT WORK. Instead do a search for CMI8738/C3DX and download the driver for your OS. It's so easy. Unfortunate to see bad reviews for a product that will most likely serve your needs for years with no issue.
