[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1188198, member: 141969"] Except when they aren't. :( In the UK, buyers are covered by the "Sale of Goods" act. If eetaylog askes the retailer whether the tuner card will work correctly with his specific motherboard, including wake from sleep, and the retailer says "yes", that becomes part of the contract, and eetaylog could return a non-working tuner card for a full refund. The problem is that the retailer is more likely to say "I don't know", in which case eetaylog might have some difficulty getting a refund (unless it could be proved to be faulty, i.e. did not work with [i]any[/i] motherboard). :( -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
