I definitely had one -- I think it on an SiS748 chipset based board, so 
maybe it's been a while since C-Media was popular.  I think I have a box 
here at the office with one, too.  It's also an Athlon XP based system.

Whatever shipped on my Biostar is junk, too.  It's an nforce3 based 
board.  I can't tell since I disabled it in the BIOS on this box.

If no one uses C-Media anymore, that would be just fantastic by me.  One 
of the C-Media cards had no PCM control!  The volume control was 
entirely in software and that was only handled with the Windows driver!
