If the 15.4" is just off the bleeding edge that would be fine... He likes to play like war games and not really sure what their names are because he's left the nest and now lives with his uncle... I seem to remember Socom Warrior or something like that about Navy Seals?

Make sure that You load the Drivers first... Keep pointing towards your driver folder until it's finished asking for stuff (it's going to have to go there quite a few times)... Then load the software... Make sure that you have your line in cable connected from the tv-card to the sound card...
