My HTPS has Win 7, ultimate, 64-bit with nVida GT 220. I followed instructions in manual and just did some settings/configuration and dada, i got DTS-HD appeared on my Pioneer receiver. OH, i enjoyed all this. This card is very easy to install and configure. If someone needs any help for similar setup, please write to me on [@].

Comments about ASUS Xonar HDAV1.3 Slim PCI Sound Card:
This was very frustrating for me to get working. The manufacturers documentation, both included and online, wasn't particularly clear or helpful. Its own user forms were also pretty limited. Using third party forms, including AVS, as well as the user forums from the publisher of the bundled software (ARCSoft), I eventually got it up and running.
And once running, it is fantastic.

Comments about ASUS Xonar HDAV1.3 Slim PCI Sound Card:
This sound card promises exactly what it advertised; notably (for me) its low profile and HD audio output. I can now watch blu-ray movies with DTS-Master and Dolby TrueHD from my A/V receiver, which I couldn't before without this sound card. The package is also a great value because it comes with the Arcsoft TMT3 software to play blu-ray (along with many other video formats). The only downside for me was that the program utility for setting up the audio output was a little confusing to use at first. However, after playing around with it a little, I managed to understand enough to get it working.
