    All the built-in hardware, which includes 5 channel sound and dual display capabilities, works just fine.

    There comes a point where you have to move on. Both of the above MBs are headed for electronic recycling, once this lockdown is over. Several old PC cases, old HDs (that still work) and old plug-in cards are also in the pile.

    If you have a usable PC case, new hardware is reasonably affordable. Gut the inside and move up to something made in the last 2-3 years.

    In the immortal words of Scarlet O'Hara, "Tomorrow is another day."

    I pulled and re-installed the auxiliary sound card; at no time did my hands leave my body but, PRESTO -- inputs and outputs ported in correct directions and now, FT-8 is being decoded -- "FM"! (Fuggin' Magic!)

    The issue with the Video card is still there but, I really don't NEED two screens to work radio, the second was parked on QRZ so that I could look up the name behind the call and insert it in my RRR-73's message.

    Never say "Die" until there is no more Coffee to mull my problems over.
