    Slot for Video card

    I'm building a new box and am only going with 1 vid card (XFX 4890). Does it really matter which of the 2 PCI slots I put it in? I've got an ASUS M479XTD EVO board and the manual doesn't say much. I seem to remember seeing somewhere that if you only have one, it's best to put it in the slot...

    No boot up or shutdown sounds

    I can't figure out why my newly built system won't play startup or shutdown sounds. I've tried changing the sound scheme in the control panel and even creating a new one but it makes no difference. All other sounds work perfect. It's not a big deal, just one of those little gnats that bug me...
